We designed and successfully used a new headrest for ophthalmic microsurgery. The symmetrical instrument has a U-shaped frame and is designed to be clamped to an operating table as a projecting extension. The headrest has been satisfactory for patients having either general or local anesthesia, and particularly useful for vitreous surgery with the Zeiss Mark VI microscope; this headrest gives excellent control over the visual field and eliminates all extraneous movement.
