Mature Cataract
An anterior lens luxation with a mature cataract. Here's an example of an anterior lens luxation. The ciliary zonules have ruptured and the cataractic lens has popped out! It's important to remove the lens before it damages the cornea by scraping up against the endothelial cells or blocking outflow of aqueous humor leading to glaucoma.
