Abstract: An ophthalmic endoilluminator has a power supply coupled to a light source, a controller, a collimation device, an alignment device, a lens, and an optical fiber. The light source has three light emitting diodes. Each of the three light emitting diodes produces a different color light. The controller controls the operation of the three light emitting diodes. The collimation device collimates the light produced by at least one of the light emitting diodes. The alignment device aligns the light individually produced by the three light emitting diodes into a single light beam. The lens focuses the single light beam. The optical fiber for carries the single light beam.

Abstract: An assembly for use in an ophthalmic endoilluminator includes a precision lamp assembly, an actuator, and a controller. The precision lamp assembly has a housing and a lamp holder for holding a lamp. The actuator is connected to the precision lamp assembly and is configured to move the precision lamp assembly. The controller controls the operation of the actuator. The controller directs the actuator to move the precision lamp assembly over time to compensate for hot spot movement of the lamp.

Abstract: A movable surgical tray that is connected to the surgical console and contains a trough or troughs into which the various handpiece fluid tubing may be placed. The troughs allow the fluid tubings to move horizontally outwardly from the tray, but help prevent the tubings from sagging or drooping and contacting non-sterile surfaces.

Abstract: A movable arm for a surgical tray that is connected to the surgical console, is adjustable for height and allows for full, unlimited 360° rotation of the tray. The arm mechanism includes a movable wedge plate containing a sloped or ramped depression that cooperates with one end of a motion transfer pin. Horizontal movement of the wedge plate causes vertical movement of the pin. The other end of the pin, opposite the wedge plate, actuates a release mechanism that allows the arm on which the tray is mounted to be raised and lowered via a pressurized gas cylinder. Such a construction allows the tray to be rotated a full 360° without affecting the arm release mechanism.

Abstract: A surgical tool holder mounted on a surgical tray that is connected to the surgical console. The tool holder has a pair of opposing, spring-loaded gripper arms. The gripper arms will move apart under force, but rotate to a closed position when no force is applied. In the closed position, the opposing gripper arms and a small, curved-shaped gap between the gripper arms allows the tool holder to accommodate a wide variety diameters of handpieces or tools.
