Abstract
A protective shield for a surgical microscope provides a barrier between a doctor and a patient that is undergoing a surgical procedure. The protective shield is designed to removably mount to the surgical microscope so that the shield can be replaced or removed for sterilization. The protective shield provides protection to the doctor who is placing his/her eyes directly against the binoculars of the microscope without impeding the view through the binoculars. The shield blocks splatter and other bodily fluids coming from in front of or below the lens or operating area.
