Figure 2. Photograph (three-dimensional lens) of a patient taken through a slit lamp. The lens opacity is axial, extending from the anterior capsule to the posterior capsule. At the anterior end, there is a round opacity about 2 mm in diameter, placed slightly eccentrically toward 10 o'clock. There is a 1 mm x 1/2 mm blunt projection on the nasal side. On the temporal side, there seems to be a fan-like opacity, which tends to hide the deeper structure of the opacity, comprising about a dozen finger-like projections going in all directions. The cataract appears like a jellyfish.
