Operation Theatre Light

An Operation Theatre (OT) Light, also called a Surgical Light or Operating Room Light, is a specialized medical lighting system designed to provide bright, consistent, and shadow-free illumination during surgical and medical procedures. These lights help surgeons clearly visualize tissues, blood vessels, and organs, ensuring high precision and safety during operations.

Modern OT lights are usually LED-based, though some use halogen technology, and they are mounted on the ceiling, wall, or mobile stands with adjustable arms for positioning. They are designed to minimize heat, avoid shadows caused by surgical staff or instruments, and provide natural colour rendering for accurate tissue differentiation. Operation lights are installed in operating theatres, ICUs, emergency rooms, and other critical care areas. They allow surgeons and medical staff to clearly see small, low-contrast objects within body cavities and incisions. Modern operating lights use advanced technologies such as LED or halogen, offering excellent light intensity, minimal heat emission, and energy efficiency. They are usually ceiling-mounted, wall-mounted, or mobile stand-based, with adjustable arms for positioning.
