<h3>To the Editors:</h3> <p>A 15-year-old boy from rural south India presented with complaints of foreign body sensation in the left eye for 1 day, after a fly landed on his eye. On examination, his uncorrected visual acuity was 20/40, N6 in both eyes. Slit-lamp biomicroscopic examination of the right eye was normal. The left eye revealed conjunctival congestion, a small area of subconjunctival hemorrhage at the 11-o&rsquo;clock position, mucoid discharge in the inferior fornix, and superficial punctate keratitis. There were 4 to 5 white worms with black frontal portion moving on the conjunctiva (Fig. <a href="EditorPage.aspx?da=core&amp;id=%7b9AAFB9E4-7723-42DE-901D-178F84938FBF%7d&amp;ed=FIELD2486124684&amp;vs&amp;la=en&amp;fld=%7b0564BFD8-9E7B-4050-89EF-344B2B7151EF%7d&amp;so=%2fsitecore%2fsystem%2fsettings%2fhtml+editor+profiles%2frich+text+healio&amp;di=0&amp;hdl=H2486124727&amp;us=sitecore%5cEAnderer&amp;mo&amp;pe=0#x01913913-20091104-15-fig1">1A</a>).
