if the item is unique in the namespace you can refer to it by its short
name:
import maya.cmds as mc
mc.select("ref_RN1:left_eye_geo",r=True)
you only need the long name if it's not unique.
select it in the scene and look in your script editor. that should give you
an idea.
if it has a "|" pipe in the name, then it's not unique. if there is no pipe
in the name it's unique.
