what's the technical name of the mirror thing doctors use on their head?

Is it just called a head mirror, or is there a technical name?

It's simply called a head mirror.

Indirect laryngoscopy is done in a doctor's office using a small hand mirror held in the mouth at the back of the throat, a head mirror worn by the doctor, and a light source
