Intraocular nematodiasis in a llama (Lama glama).

Bettina Dunkel1, Raymond W Sweeney, Perry L Habecker, Andras M Komaromy.   

Abstract

This report describes a unique case of presumed migration of Parelaphastrongylus tenuis through the spinal cord into the eye of a llama where it survived and matured within the ocular environment. Blindness of the eye was most likely attributable to migration of the parasite through the central nervous tissue.
