Abstract
An instrument stand for supporting ophthalmological instruments. The instrument stand may include a console housing configured to receive differently-configured electronics modules. In addition to, or instead of, the interchangeable electronics modules, the console housing may also be provided with a removable shelf that is resistant to unintentional removal during use. In addition to, or instead of, the interchangeable electronics modules and removable shelf, the instrument stand may also include a support arm having a cutout on different surfaces so that a panel carrying electrical inserts may be positioned in the cutout on one of the surfaces, while covering the unused cutout on the other surface with a blank panel.
