I use a Zacuto Z-Finder 2.5x It clips on a slender fame that is mounted on/around the rear LCD. It's great for handheld manual focus using LiveView, but it's really more like handheld shoooting through the finder, because the LCD essentially becomes the finder. I originally bought it for use with a 5DII, and then transfered it to a 6D. I use it mostly for manual focus with "Alt" lenses, and occasionally (rarely) for video.

P.S. don't be fooled by its size, the Z-Finder is quite light in weight.
There is a knockoff brand like this that's about $130 (will dig up the model later) that works exactly the same way. It's fantastic for shooting video or critical focusing, and you can use your left or right eye with it.
