An eye examination aid including an aligner/illuminator and a mount. The aligner/illuminator includes a first body containing a visible light laser and an illumination source emitting non-coherent light. The visible light laser has a laser axis along which visible laser light is emitted. The mount includes a second body having a receiving portion into which the aligner/illuminator is removably receivable in a fixed orientation and presenting a first generally planar side oriented substantially parallel to the laser axis and a second generally planar side oriented substantially perpendicular to the laser axis. At least one of the first generally planar side and the second generally planar side are structured to receive an adhesive whereby the mount is adapted to be secured to an external surface of a refractor instrument such that the laser axis is directed substantially parallel to an optical axis of the refractor instrument.
