A lighted tip for a flexible rod includes a tip body having proximal and distal ends, a mechanical connector at the proximal end, a rounded lens connected to the distal end, and a light source that emits light through the rounded lens. The lighted tip defines a transverse through hole to enable connection of a wire to the lighted tip.
