An implant capable of forming a differential image in an eye is shown. The implant comprises an elongated member having a pair of spaced ends. The elongated member is formed of a dimension to be inserted into and/or passed through a punctum opening of an eye and into the canaliculus. The implant comprises an energy obstructing material, such as for example a pigment comprising titanium dioxide, which is responsive to the application of an energy wave in the visible light range which, upon everting of an eyelid of an eye and exposing the implant to the energy wave, forms a differential image pattern showing the location of the implant in the canaliculus of the eye.
