Larva migrans lentis.

Ophthalmologica

Published: May 1977

A unique case of a larva migrans lentis in a 33-year-old female is presented. The intraocular larval (obviously Toxocara) affection was characterized in the first phase by the development of a peripheral chorioretinal granuloma and in the second phase by the finding of larva migrans in the lens. The lively larva appeared several times in the pupillary area under the anterior and posterior lens capsule and survived an intensive treatment by Mintezol.
