Abstract

Abstract We present the first report of a live subconjunctival Dirofilaria Repens in the Nordic countries. A woman had been in India five months before her symptoms started with redness and a foreign sensation in her eye. A worm that moved was found under her conjunctiva (film enclosed). She was instantly operated and the worm was removed (film enclosed). Surgical removal of the worm led to resolution of symptoms and a good clinical outcome.
