How would I arrange a laptop with a recliner?

My husband wants a recliner, and it would probably be good for him because he’s fighting edema in his legs.

However, he just sits in front of his computer pretty much all day and all night, at a computer desk with an office chair. He almost never just reads or watches TV the way a lot of people do in their recliners. There’s no way he could reach the computer from a recliner seat.

So I’m wondering if somebody has set up a successful arrangement with a recliner and some kind of lap desk or hospital tray or something that allows reclining while also using a laptop or tablet.

And, I must add, with a mug of coffee at hand all the time, plus odds and ends like a water bottle, a phone, and a nebulizer.

Do you know anybody who has made this work?

I’m not getting him a recliner that will just sit empty, taking up space. But if we can figure out how he might actually use it, I guess I’ll have to say okay.

Thanks for any help.
