Disclosure herein are aerodynamic surgical lights and methods of manufacturing and use thereof. The aerodynamic surgical lights may include a light head made of one or more substantially toroidal light housings. The substantially toroidal light housings contain and protect a plurality of LED lights and their respective reflectors that aim a light beam toward the lower side of the substantially toroidal light housings. The substantially toroidal light housings are vertically elongate. The vertically elongated substantially toroidal light housings include upper sections that are aerodynamically curved or pointed to streamline airflow past the light housings. The upper sections of the substantially toroidal light housings are made of molded plastic resin reinforced with carbon fibers or glass fibers and the lower sections of the substantially toroidal light housings are made of a clear moldable plastic.
