A lift adjusting module is located in a surgical operation lamp and includes a plurality of latch elements to movably latch on petal sections of a brake piece. The brake piece runs through a rotary member and a rotary shaft. When a handle receives force, the rotary member drives the rotary shaft and moves a lamp seat axially to control the projection focus scope of the operation lamp. In the mean time, the latch elements are compressed and selectively embedded in the rotary member to effectively prevent the operation lamp from wearing and being damaged due to improper force. Thus surgical operation safety may be enhanced and the service life of the operation lamp can be increased.
