One after another
The doctor actually took the patient
More than 60 live insects were taken out of the eyes!
Last week, an eye hospital in Kunming, Yunnan Province, received a female patient in her 50s. After a preliminary examination, the doctor saw a lot of parasites on the surface of the patient's eye under the microscope, and when the eyelids were opened, the white parasites in the shape of silk threads were constantly wriggling.
Guan Jie, the attending physician of corneal disease and dry eye disease at Kunming Runcheng Purui Eye Hospital, said that more than 40 worms were taken out from the patient's right eye and more than 10 were taken out from the left eye, "adding up to more than 60".
Guan Jie said that the situation of more than 60 parasites in both eyes is rare in clinical practice. "The one I've seen the most is just over 10, but it's relatively rare to have more than 60 of them like this one, and every one of them is an adult. ”
It is known that the patient felt uncomfortable in his eyes, and when he rubbed his eyes, the bugs fell out. She saw bugs crawling on her hands, so she rushed to the hospital.
In order to ensure that each parasite can be completely removed and avoid secondary infection, Guan Jie was careful in the process of removing the worms, and it took about half an hour to remove all the visible worms in the patient's eyes.
According to reports, the patients are all adult worms of conjunctival sucking nematodes in the eyes, and it is not excluded that there are residual eggs in the eyes, so the patients also need to be rechecked regularly. It is understood that conjunctival sucking nematodes are mostly parasitic on pets, and most of them are transmitted through fruit fly bites.
Guan Jie said that the patient was not bitten by fliesIt may be that after coming into contact with cats and dogs with parasite larvae, they directly rubbed their eyes and caused the infection.
Doctor reminds:
If you have a pet at home, you must deworm your pet regularly.
Wash your hands promptly after close contact with pets.
Avoid rubbing your eyes to increase the risk of infection.
