  15. •Before photographing a patient, remember to pull the stage back towards you. Then have the patient rest their chin on the chin rest and press their forehead against the head rest. •Use your left hand to help guide the stage, while your right hand controls the movement of the stage (via the joystick). •Remember to move the stage towards you, in a “U”movement (away from the patient) to avoid the camera coming in contact with the patient when switching from left eye to right eye. Hand Positioning Confidential only for Authorized Canon Distributor

  16. •Before proceeding, check the patient’s head alignment. –Verify that the patient has their chin firmly resting on the chin rest. –Verify their forehead is firmly against the Head Rest.
