Lights designed to provide intensely focused light directly on the area where the examination is being performed. These lights are intended to emit their useful radiation mainly in the visible spectra; some dedicated examination lights may work in the infrared or ultraviolet spectra. Incandescent, fluorescent, halogen, as well as LED (i.e., light emitting diodes) lights are available. Examination lights are available in stand-alone, wall-mounted, ceiling-mounted, and portable/handheld configurations. Examination lights are used in dental and physician offices for patient examinations; they may also be used during minor surgical procedures.
