Slit Lamp Mount

The XXX comes equipped with a slit lamp mount, which can be found in the upper half of the carry case. The slit lamp mount can be used in conjunction with any slit lamp to aid in the alignment and measurement of a patient. The mount can be inserted into the hole that traditionally accomodates the FOCUSING ROD on the slit lamp.
Insert the shaft of the mount into the focusing rod hole and place the XXX into the holder. Tighten the set screw to hold the XXX in place and utilize the controls of the slit lamp to take measurements.

Fokussierstab

I have done quite a few translations of user manuals in this area (opthalmogical lasers, slit lamps, and other accessories) for various manufacturers; and we've always used this term, and it was always accepted by in-country reviewers.

The reference below may also be helpful.
