An illumination apparatus for illuminating a medical diagnostic instrument with a light source that is located remotely from the instrument and that is equipped with a fiberoptic cable having a threaded connector. The instrument to be illuminated includes a light cavity designed to receive an electrically powered light source. The illumination apparatus includes an adapter having a first coupling structure for engaging said threaded connector and a second coupling structure for engaging the instrument in proximity to said light cavity. When so engaged, the apparatus fiberoptically illuminates the light cavity in place of said light source.
