17-year-old teenager with a living worm in his eye

in #health7 years ago



A 17-year-old teenager went to the doctor for an eye infection. During the examination, the doctor discovered a living worm stuck in his eye.

It was a parasite that had drilled through the iris.

This parasite called Dactylogyrus is not normally intended to visit the eyes. After the operation and six months of treatment, the boy was able to see normally again.
