What Makes a Good Surgical Light?

Well, a perfect formula to a successful illumination is a product of medical advancement. We have now devised the kind of illumination surgeons needed. An Operation Theater is a place where even a slight oversight here & there might be devastating and disastrous. A bad illumination can easily become a cause of such error. Back in history, sunlight was the only source of illumination while in surgery. Else the surgeon had to rely on whatever vision they would get through candles. Halogens then took over but soon their drawback and weaknesses came to light like a fly in the ointment. It was then realized the need for a perfect solution for a place that allows no imperfection. To enumerate the basics of illumination, here we are-

1) Heat - Prolonged exposure to heat and radiation can damage tissues which are not acceptable. Therefore, LED was introduced for surgical OT lights, as it emits no heat waves unlike the halogen used to do earlier. 

2) Shadow – Halogen and other conventional lights used to create a shadow under the hands of the surgeon that affect the overall operation and can lead to mistakes by the surgeon. Surgical operating lights now used in India are so designed in a panel that no corner under operation can go in the dark.

3) Tissue differentiation – The white light of surgical OT lights helps to differentiate between various layers of tissues being slightly varying in shades.

Operation theater lights in India are advanced and with state-of-the-art modular embellishment. Gone are days of seeking infrastructural development assistance from abroad. We are now capable of inventing, designing, developing and customizing as per our specific requirements. We have some extraordinary and exceptional indigenous designers and manufacturers. Among these Skynexx having website www.skynexxotlight.com keeps a lead and is a front-runner in measures of quality of surgical OT lights.
