Bilateral ophthalmomyiasis interna.

G I Mason.   

Abstract

A 33-year-old man had bilateral ophthalmomyiasis interna. A larval maggot, presumably a botfly, caused a subretinal hemorrhage in the left macula. Diagnostic retinal pigment epithelial worm tracks were observed in both fundi, although the subretinal larva itself was observed only in the left eye. Bilateral worm tracks suggested either separate infestations in each eye or migration of a single maggot from one eye to the other.
