Abstract
An ophthalmic slit lamp is modified by adding a laser to it to be used for microsurgery. The laser is mounted on the lamp so its beam is projected into the eye along one axis while the normal viewing image generated by the lamp is focused into the eye from another angle. An aiming image is focused into the eye coincidentally with the laser beam so that the distance between the two images and their relative position may be determined by their apparent positions as seen from the viewing binoculars of the lamp.
