Figure 1  

Slit lamp biomicroscopic appearance of heavily infiltrated Cloquet's canal seen through the QuadrAspheric contact lens. Central part of the vitreous space. The normal course of the central canal is altered by the cellular infiltration. Saccular dilatations are present at the anterior end of the tractus. The whole course of the Cloquet's canal is surrounded by a layer of infiltrated cloudy vitreous where signs of the radial orientation can be seen.
