ABSTRACT:
An arm and hand rest device for performing microsurgery, such as an eye operation, on a patient lying on an operating table, the device having a board placed on the operating table beneath the upper body portion of the patient so that the weight of the patient will hold the device firmly in place. Two tables are disposed at the head end of the board and each includes a platform on which the hands and arms are rested while the surgeon uses a scalpel or other instrument in performing the operation. The tables are spaced from one another to define the area in which the patient's head is placed for the operation, and the platforms are adjustable vertically and have projections at the top end extending toward one another.
