Abstract: Patient-supported ophthalmic platforms for use in ophthalmic procedures are described. The platform is supported at least in part upon a patient's face where the platform is configured to cover at least one or both eyes and further includes a conformable portion which rests upon a remainder of the patient's face. The platform may also integrate rests for the hands of the surgeon and may optionally integrate an instrument rest for allowing ready access of one or more surgical instruments to the surgeon. One or more corresponding eyelid speculums may also be integrated with the surgical platform eliminating the need for a separate speculum. An irrigation fluid trough may also be integrated with the surgical platform for collecting and diverting an irrigating fluid and the platform may optionally be used in combination with an oxygen delivery mask or nasal cannula.
