Topological defects can naturally be formed soon after bubble nucleation in the open inflation scenario. The defects are not completely diluted away by the subsequent period of inflation in the bubble interior and can produce observable large-scale microwave background anisotropies. Superheavy strings and monopoles attached to the strings can act as gravitational lenses with angular separation between the images of up to an arc minute.
