Abstract
This case report documents the exceptional spontaneous migration of an intrastromal corneal foreign body in a 37-year-old male injured by vegetative matter. Examination revealed a small retained foreign body and surrounding infiltrate. Over 6 weeks of observation and treatment, the foreign body remarkably migrated nearly 3 mm intrastromally with the resolution of infiltrates. Once reaching the anterior chamber, surgical removal was undertaken. This rare occurrence highlights the intricacies of foreign body behavior within the cornea warranting vigilance and further research on underlying biomechanics.
