Ergonomics of surgical microscopes for the sitting position as determined by ocular-corpus length.

Conclusion: The ocular-corpus length determines the predominant part of the lever arm, which affects the fatigue of the surgeon. By virtue of its short ocular-corpus length, the Mitaka MM90 is currently the most favorable microscope for microsurgical procedures using a sitting position. PMID: 32905324 [PubMed]
