it off a slit lamp.

One more piece of sticky
tape, that's what you'll
need

Hang the reduced eye from the head bar on the slit lamp.
You may wish to use a second piece of tape to adhere the lens
to the front of the head bar.

Et voila! You have a patient who will never say no!
Just bring in your fundus lens and practice long enough to master the technique.
