Q&A 1: Something in the eye

Posted on 03 November 2008 by blackie

Bet this is not a very hard question but one time witnessing it is better than reading it on words for 1000 times. P.S.: Since a suggestion of making this into a weekly questions seems fun enough, answer will be reveal on every friday, I hope everybody care to take part!

Question of the week:

1. What is your diagnosis based on the picture seen?

    despite of the very hot topic about football today, i’m going to disclose the answer.

    the pic is a Loa-loa worm in the eye.

    Of course there are other worms which can appear there but considering the size of the worm u see, it is the Loa-loa worm.

    if not sure? can go google loa-loa and u will see one of the pic is that. LOL.

    not many people take part, maybe should put up easier questions. thanks for commenting.
