There's an adjustment screw behind the older(previous gen) mantis
dynascope.
This model:

What's that screw for?
When I was cleaning lenses, I noticed that this screw tilts a mirror.

btw...I was investigating and turned the screw to the point of
'boing!'.
The mirror and screw have separated..
I have to take the mantis apart again to reattach.. :(

The side adjustment is for eye separation.
The back adjustment (just a screw) I suspect is for horizontal
alignment.
(People generally don't have one eyeball higher than the other..)
