ABSTRACT:
An ergonomic adjustable microscope base comprising a base positioned on a support surface; rubber bumpers to prevent the base from sliding on the support surface; fasteners for attaching and locking a microscope in a nonmovably mounted relationship with the upper surface of the base; and manually rotatable and lockable adjusters, located at each rearward corner of the base and operatively associated with the base, to provide for selectively varying the rearward vertical height of the base and mounted microscope relative to the support surface, thereby providing a range of forward tilt angles so that a user of the microscope is able to maintain a more neutral position in the neck, back, and shoulder areas.
