1 Intraocular lens
2 Traumatic aniridia
3 16-cut radial keratotomy
4 Inter-corneal blood
5 Laser bubbles
6 Parinaud's oculo-grandular syndrome
7 Corneal deposits
8 Dislocated crystalline lens
 9 IOL S/P Yag Capsulotomy
10 Silicon oil bubbles in anterior cornea
11 Iris tumor
12 Crystalline lens in anterior cornea
13 IOL sticking through penetrating keratoplasty
14 Expulsed retina
15 Diffraction of light through edematous cornea
