An eye worm tickles

I'm reluctant on the operation


This is something I would not want blurring my view

Whoa...

Thats.... errr just damn freaky.

And that honky piano somehow makes this the most disturbing video I've seen.

Thankfully, I found how these worms are removed.

Eye worms are closely related to the filarial worms that cause elephantiasis. They are found in Africa and affect both humans and baboons. Eye worms live in and burrow through the tissues just below the skin of their host. In their travels, the worms occasionally move across the surface of the eye- hence the name eye worm.

Its not a worm ON their eye, its actually INSIDE the eye! Mind you, everywhere you go you'd get a ticker-tape parade!

Awwww It's so cute! I want one in my eye! With eye tattoos becoming more popular...I wonder how long it is before people start putting little critters directly in their eyeballs?

It'd be like having a little aquarium with you wherever you go!!!

I want to put seamonkeys in my eye!

I must admit, this morning I thought about the above video again, and had to have a good look at my eyes in the mirror.... just in case!
Creepy video *shudders* is creepy.

My kids killed a cockroach and something that looked just like that crawled out of it's head and died.
Thanks for the memories.

For your viewing pleasure:

Ohhh, all those vids are creepy and gross! I couldn't stand it if I had that thing in my eye!

OP needs to be banned for posting that. It is the most disturbing thing I have seen on ATS. Eeeewwwwwwwww. The title is the worst... thinking about the tickles... Reluctant flag, and petition for a ban (kidding) OP.
