The present invention makes use of the spherical sectors, semi-spheres, cylindrical or circular sections of a solid object or the surface of an object, and breaks them into components. If no such spherical sectors, semi-spheres, cylindrical or circular sections are available on the object, or the existing ones cannot be used for any reason, one can create some adequate ones under allowable circumstances. The puzzle will come into being when any of its broken down components can be shared with (interchanged with components of) other flat or spherical or circular or cylindrical surfaces. The idea of the present invention is rather simple, however it may be applied in a versatile manner.

The diaphragm is held in position by inserting engaging means in the ciliary sulcus.

It is proposed that said diaphragm is opaque to a visible light spectrum and transparent to light in the infrared range and is equipped with passage means of visible light in its central region, such as a through hole whose diameter is between 1 mm and 2.5 mm.

The constriction of the incident light rays increases the depth of focus, featuring a pinhole effect. The engagement means may be provided by two handles shaped with curved proximal ends joined to the peripheral edge of said diaphragm and having substantially circular section with a diameter between 80 μm and 800 μm or two handles of the same material as the diaphragm and constituting an extension of this edge, or even one elongated platform whose center is located in the small-diameter circular opening.
