Ophthalmomyiasis treated by argon-laser photocoagulation.

A R Forman, A F Cruess, W E Benson.   

Abstract

A live, subretinal fly larva was observed in a 16-year-old Caucasian female. Argon-laser photocoagulation killed the larva without a destructive inflammatory response. The patient's vision improved from 20/200 to 20/20 as the eye recovered. Clinical photographs demonstrate the larva and the acute and later healed pathopneumonic subretinal tracks. The laser photocoagulation technique is described.
