I'm going to excuse myself from this one, since my wife works in the field from which this little gem originates.  But it definitely is quite a sight, isn't it?

 ophthalmoscope

The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition | 2008 | The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. Copyright 2008 Columbia University Press. (Hide copyright information) Copyright

ophthalmoscope , instrument used for examining the inner structure of the eye . The device was invented by the German physiologist H. L. F. von Helmholtz in 1851. His model consisted of three plates of glass pressed together and mounted on a handle at a 45? angle. A light was placed beside the subject whose eyes were to be examined. Some light passed through the plates, but some was reflected back into the eye. The form of the instrument now in general use consists of a concave mirror and a battery-powered light source within a tubular handle. Sighting is through a single or binocular eyepiece. The ophthalmoscope is equipped with a rotating disc of lenses to permit observation of the eye at varying depths and magnifications. Examination of the eye may be enhanced by administering drugs to dilate the pupil.

When it comes to optical and ophthomological devices, there haven't been too many pieces of equipment used in the last 100+ years that have stumped.   Last club meeting we were at someone showed up with something he thought was the crystal for a pocket watch---until she told him it was a cylinder lens from a  trial frame for a phoropter from the 1920's or 30's.   Makes it fun going to pioneer museums with her.
