标准的裂隙灯可以用现成的部件进行改装，以检查坐轮椅的病人。这一改进最大限度地减少了将患者转移到检查椅上时的不适，并在某些情况下可能提供更好的患者定位。除了节省工作人员的时间外，这项技术还最大限度地减少了静脉导管、引流导管和类似器具的断开。在裂隙灯底座上增加了一个旋转延伸部，使整个装置能够在轮椅的两臂之间以患者感到舒适的高度滑动。
A standard slit lamp can be modified with readily available components to examine wheelchair-bound patients. This modification minimizes discomfort in transferring patients to an examination chair and may provide better patient positioning in some cases. In addition to saving staff time, this technique minimizes the disconnecting of intravenous tubing, drainage catheters, and similar appliances. The addition of a swivel extension to the base of the slit lamp allows the entire unit to slide between the arms of the wheelchair at a height that is comfortable for the patient.
