ABSTRACT A lamp for providing uniform luminosity in an area to be illuminated, such as in an operating theatre and the like. The lamp comprises a light source, an infrared filter element, a planar prism field, having a substantial number of radial sectors containing a plurality of transverse, outwardly curved prisms, and a toroidal lens system which controls the divergence of the light emanating from the light source so as to render the light substantially columnate and to direct the light onto the planar prism field, a transparent member beneath the planar prism field to protect the planar prism field from dirt, foreign material and scratches, and a handle extending downwardly from the face of the lamp by which the lamp can be manipulated. The radial sectors are held together in the planar prism field by attachment to one another. As a result, the transparent member can be thin since it is not required to support the planar prism field. The transparent member, therefor, can be removed for cleaning or replacement without disassembly of the planar prism field. The lens of the toroidal lens system is a conical Fresnel lens. The infrared filter element comprises upper and lower substantially cylindrical portions only the lower portion of which acts as an infrared filter. The handle is provided with slots permitting air to enter the handle and pass upwardly within the filter element and about the light source, exiting at the top of the lamp to cool the light source. Finally, the light source comprises a bulb supported by a bulb holder assembly which is preferably disposable.
