The extremely wide-angle lens. Used to produce a sense of disorientation.
The lens in a door's peephole is a fish-eye, so this lens is used when a visitor is viewed outside an apartment. Makes anyone look distorted. May also be used from a low angle to spice up long-winded dialogue sequences in anime.
Also frequently used when shooting skateboarding and other extreme sports, as it can make big air look bigger from the appropriate angle.
Since less-expensive security camera set-ups are often fitted with wide-angle lenses to allow one camera to cover more area, the resulting footage may show a fisheye effect. Simulated security-camera footage, therefore, is also often shot with a fisheye.
Note that when seen in an animated format it is often a False Camera Effect, although a technique for drawing this way exists independently and can be used for the same sense of disorientation.
Nothing to do with Fish Eyes.

Done a couple times in Naruto when a character is going crazy or about to succumb to his dark side (or both).
Mostly it's done just to show off, it seems, as many of the shots are completely gratuitous..
The manga often uses this for the traditional effect, or a lesser version for particularly intense full-page spreads (this is probably the best example).

Used multiple times in Assassination Classroom. After Itona's Heel–Face Turn he creates a miniature tank to use for assassination. The boys get in on it, repeatedly upgrading the tank and eventually realizing it's standard lense doesn't help them navigate it better, but Okajima figures out what they need is a fish-eye lense... and then they use it for peeping. Naturally, it doesn't go over well. During the Reaper Arc, the students are imprisoned in a cage with explosive collars while being monitored with a fish-eye lense camera. The figure out how to exploit it by painting their clothes to match the walls and hiding in the distorted areas of the camera.

Neon Genesis Evangelion did this often in Shinji's internal sequences, to heighten the sense of isolation around him. They're used in real-life scenes as well. There's a shot in episode 11 that's used to emphasize the implied menace of a locked door AND to visualize Asuka's self-centeredness. It's part of the Signature Style of Hideaki Anno.

The Marathon series has this as a temporary Power-Up. While gaining 180-degree peripheral vision is theoretically an advantage, most players found it a disorienting annoyance.
Prime Target and Marathon Rubicon use this feature of the engine, accompanied by other special effects, to show the Player Character in a drugged/groggy state.

The entirety of How the West Was Won was shot through two paired fisheye lenses, a purposeful choice by director John Ford to show the open, sweeping landscape of the West. It works beautifully for its intended purpose, but when used for close-ups inside buildings... not so much.

Percy de Rolo is the subject of one in the third episode The Legend of Vox Machina when the Briarwoods—who slaughtered his family and had him tortured—show up unexpectedly at a dinner party. The cast and crew are mostly anime fans, with Percy's voice actor Taliesin Jaffe in particular having been involved in anime dubbing since the 1990s; this shot clearly hearkened back to the technique's particular use in anime to connote a character's fragile mental state.

Pani Poni Dash! used this effect to emphasize Miyako's gigantic forehead.
The same gag is used on Yue in Negima!, as both were made by the same studio - one of the OAVs opened a scene with a fish-eye view of Nodoka as she talks to someone, then pulls back to show it was the reflection off Yue's Forehead of Doom.

Top of the Pops used a fisheye lens, back when the technology was still new, for David Bowie's performance of "The Jean Genie". The episode was one of many that The BBC wiped during its junking policy, rendering it a Missing Episode, but cameraman John Henshall kept a copy of the Bowie gig's footage, allowing it to be recovered in 2011 for use on the Clip Show spinoff Top of the Pops 2.

Doctor Who director Graeme Harper has done this with nearly every new series story he has directed. Example◊ from "Journey's End".

The Oswald the Lucky Rabbit short "Tall Timber" has a scene where, after a boulder crushes Oswald into a rotund appearance, the camera cuts to a wonky fish-eye closeup of his face.

Frequently used in Monster Magnet's "Space Lord" video, which was meant to parody hip-hop videos of the time, such as the ones the above mentioned "Hype" Williams was known for directing.

In Poor Pretty Eddie, Eddie takes Liz to a dam so she can take publicity photos of him against the waterfall. The lens is used while he forces her to walk across a narrow passageway above the chasm.

In Digimon Tamers, this is used both to enhance the idea that the world shown is a mindscape (When focused on a character) or that the characters are alone (when focused elsewhere). The technique is used sparingly.

The Critic also did this, with Jay's ex-wife looking out the peephole at a grotesque Jay. She was even more disgusted to find he looked exactly the same when she opened the door.
