When transferred to the Guangdong People's Eye 2 Hospital, the doctor discovered that under her eyelids, there was 1u small, smooth surface, and pressed to feel flaccid but not painful. When surgery, it was really unexpected, there were 3 small cocoons inside, cut out 3 trematodes that crawled out on their own, each about 20mm long, milky color. The doctor thought that cocoons had existed for a while and were caused by parasites.

This species invades due to eating and drinking, due to eating pork infected with flukes, cassava larvae that have not been thoroughly cooked, or unwashed fruits. So wash your hands before eating, after going to the toilet.

The doctor said that although he had surgery to remove three pigs, but parasites may exist in the patient's body, this type of fluke is easy to penetrate into the brain, eyeballs cause blindness and danger muscle leads to death.
