Eye Worm Removed With Laser

Doctors in Iowa rushed a Cedar Rapids man into surgery after they found a worm had taken up residence in his eye. John Matthews said he sought medical help after he noticed two spots obscuring his vision in his left eye. He was sent to the ophthalmology department at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics, where doctors found the worm and removed it with two rounds of laser blasts. Doctors think he got the worm either when he was in Mexico or while turkey hunting. An Animal Planet crew filmed the incident after Matthews called them and told them what was going on.
