ABSTRACT:
An adapter that attaches to a surgical microscope for holding the lens cover of a sterile drape at an angle relative to the scope's objective lens, so as to eliminate the reflection (glare) of illumination off the drape lens cover as light is directed through the surgical microscope to the field of view at the patient surgical site.
