Devices, methods, and systems related to surgical microscopes using red reflex illumination are provided. According to one aspect of the present invention, there is a red reflex surgical microscope system which may have: a red reflex illumination source, an objective lens, and an aperture stop. In certain embodiments, the aperture stop is located between the illumination source and objective lens. An image of the aperture stop may be imaged in proximity to the objective lens, and a size of beams reflected from the objective lens are shortened based on the proximity of the image of the aperture stop to the objective lens. Other embodiments described herein include a red reflex surgical microscope system used in conjunction with an OCT and coupled via a dichroic mirror, with an obstruction configured to minimize glare by being positioned on or adjacent to a side of the dichroic mirror not reflecting OCT light. Other embodiments include an oblique white-light illumination source. Yet other embodiments are described herein.
A red reflex surgical microscope system, comprising:
A red reflux surgical microscope system, comprising:
An oblique white-light surgical microscope system, comprising:
A method for red reflex illumination of a surgical field of vision, comprising:
