What is an "operating microscope"?
An operating microscope is a specialized device used by surgeons during delicate procedures to magnify and light up the area they are operating on with great accuracy. It typically includes a set of lenses for both eyes placed on a stand, allowing the surgeon to view detailed structures with greater clarity and depth. Operating microscopes have adjustable lenses, light sources, and sometimes video recording features to help in complex surgeries requiring an extremely clear view of the affected area. They are essential tools in surgical specialties such as neurosurgery, ophthalmology, and microsurgery, allowing surgeons to perform delicate actions with accuracy and improved outcomes.
