Abstract According to the invention, in an operation microscope comprising an illumination optical system for irradiating an observation object, a recording optical system for receiving the reflected light from an observation object for recording and an observation optical system for receiving the reflected light from an observation object for observation, there is disposed a light dividing penetration member wherein an optical axis of the recording optical system and at least part of an optical axis of the illumination optical system coexist. In this operation microscope, due to the light dividing penetration member, the optical axis of the recording optical system and at least part of the optical system of the illumination optical system are arranged coaxially, so that the reflected light from the region of an observation objective irradiated with the illumination optical system always penetrates through the light dividing penetration member and continues through the recording optical system, is provided for recording. Accordingly, the angles between the respective optical axes become small, so even when an observation object exists at the bottom of a deep hole, its image can be recorded with certainty.
An operation microscope, comprising: an illumination optical means for irradiating an observation object; a recording optical means for receiving via an objective lens a reflected light from an observation object for recording; an observation optical means including a prism for receiving a reflected light from an observation object for observation, wherein the illumination optical means includes a light dividing penetration means for receiving light from a light source, directing the received light onto the objective from the direction different from that of a central optical axis of said objective lens, receiving via said objective lens light from the objective and directing the light to the recording optical means; and an auxiliary reflective mirror means, arranged at a position opposite to said light dividing penetration means with respect to the central optical axis of said objective lens, for reflecting the light which penetrates through said light dividing penetration means of said illumination optical means and proceeds perpendicular to the optical axis of said objective lens and for introducing said light via said objective lens to said observation object.
