Abstract:

A sterile drape system for a surgical microscope includes an adapter ring which is attached around the outside diameter of the objective lens of the microscope, to provide a standard or uniform outside diameter mounting surface. A drape lens is contained within a drape ring. A sterile drape is attached to the drape ring. The drape ring is frictionally engaged onto the outside diameter of the adapter ring and the drape pulled over the microscope. A lens ring having a primary lens is attached to the drape ring with a quick disconnect fitting. The sterile drape system eliminates the need to inventory multiple surgical microscope drapes and reduces waste resulting from the selection of a drape not matching the surgical microscope to be used.
