Another +20.00D lens

A business card cut to size for the lenses and a 4mm
hole crudely cut in the middle

Conventional bandage sticky tape

Three strips of sticky tape, each about 8cm long

One piece of the
sticky tape used to
put the three lenses
together

A second piece added for improved stability of lenses

The lens handles secured together using a piece of sticky tape

The business card to serve as the aperture (pupil)

The completed
job! Just need to hang
it off a slit lamp.
Aidin Safvati
One more piece of sticky
tape, that's what you'll
need
Aidin Safvati
Bend the edges
onto the sides of the handle to
secure the tape
Aidin Safvati
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.
