Multiple light source configuration
A lighting device comprising a plurality of lighting modules arranged concentrically about an optical axis is disclosed wherein the plurality of lighting modules emit light in at least one of a plurality of wavelength ranges (UV, visible (e.g., blue, green, yellow, orange, red, white, etc.), IR) and are arranged at a non-parallel angle to an optical axis of the lighting device, wherein the emitted light is directed towards a lens system that focuses the light onto a viewing point. A second lighting device is disclosed, wherein the lighting device comprises a plurality of lighting modules arranged concentrically about an inner circumference of the lighting device, wherein the plurality of lighting modules emit light in at least one of a plurality of wavelength ranges (UV, visible (e.g., blue, green, yellow, orange, red, white, etc.), IR) onto a lighting director device that redirects the emitted light toward a lens system that focuses the light onto a viewing point.
Loupe and loupe unit
A loupe is bonded to a glasses-type holder to be worn around a head of a user. The loupe includes: a tube framework inserted into a hole or a cutout formed in the glasses-type holder and bonded with a UV adhesive; and a lens held in the tube framework. At least a portion at which the UV adhesive is applied in the tube framework is made of a resin not resistant to acetone and is covered with a paint resistant to acetone.
Method for adjusting loupe and loupe
A method is provided for adjusting a loupe including an eyepiece and a tube framework having a first optical system adjacent to an object and a second optical system adjacent to the eyepiece. At least two zoom lenses in the first optical system shift along an optical axis between a first and a second position to change magnification. The method includes shifting at least one lens in the first optical system such that a distance at which the object is focused when the zoom lenses are shifted to the first position is substantially equal to a distance at which the object is focused when the zoom lenses are shifted to the second position; and then shifting at least one lens in the second optical system along the optical axis such that the object is focused when the zoom lenses are shifted to the first position or the second position.
User wearable fluorescence enabled visualization system
A user-wearable fluorescence based visualization system comprising a multi-light lamp assembly that provides for the selected output of light using multiple light emitting sources, wherein the outputted light may be tailored to generate response wavelength by the interaction of the emitted light and a tissue illuminated by the emitted light, through the process of fluorescence, and a viewing system that allows a practitioner view the fluorescent light generated by the tissue, and distinguish between healthy and diseased tissues.
Ergonomic protective eyewear
Using two or more cameras attached to the eyewear, three-dimensional views with accurate and natural depth perception of the working area can be displayed for users, so that the user can maintain healthy sitting or standing posture while working on patients or objects located below horizontal eye level. Additional functions including eye protection, zoom-in, zoom-out, on-off, lighting control, overlapping, and teleconference capabilities are also supported using electronic, video and audio devices attached to the eyewear. The eyewear can also comprise a face shield designed to protect the user from hazardous droplets, aerosols, harmful wavelengths of light, heat, sparks, flash burn, debris and/or flying objects.

Goggle Loupes
A device includes the elements of full eye coverage goggles and magnifying binocular loupes. So wearers have eye protection against small particles, such as virus when doing delicate procedures requiring magnification to fine details. The device could work with other personal protective equipment to reach higher level protection.
