Good thing this can't happen in humans right?..... Right?!...

[–]alextonne 126 points127 points ago

Google search Loa Loa. It's a parasite that occasionally migrates across the conjuctiva of the eye (it's not painful at all when this happens). To get the parasite out, one must take it out as it comes across the eye (not for the faint of heart!)

The worst part about that image is how long it took to load. I knew what was coming, and the anticipation made it worse

Creatures like this, Japanese giant wasps, and the entire zoological population of Australia are proof that if there is a God, he/it is most certainly not benevolent.

    Google search Loa Loa

    Why would you do this to me? You know I have a compulsion to google anything I don't know about, and yet you give me this? Go to hell.

    [–]Bernie_Roscoe 14 points15 points ago*

    You should definitely google image search Fetiform Teratoma Anencephaly (Homunculus). It's not disturbing at all.

    Not at all.

    Promise.

    Warning: NSFL... maybe

    [–]no_username_needed 26 points27 points ago

    I'm cool with deformed and maimed people, been on the internet far too long for that to bother me. I just hate reading about yet another thing that could possibly be feeding off of me right now.

    [–]Bernie_Roscoe 8 points9 points ago*

    Stay away from Africa and you'll be fine.

    Anyway, the parasite is very easily treatable and very rare.

    Unlike enterobius.

    fun fact: over 10% of all Americans have thousands of this fella living inside of them.

    [–]Scruge 27 points28 points ago

    great, that just sent me on a wiki search that concluded with me seeing the picture of a mans hairy rectum covered in pinworms.

      Fuck you.

      EDIT: Welp, fuck me. Have had outside pets since I was a little kid, have always chewed my nails, and have generally been an outside kid. I likely have a parasite now.

                            You don't have to go outside to catch internal parasites. Some travel in mosquitoes, for example.

                            [–]atomicbison 7 points8 points ago

                            Don't worry, if you live outside the tropics/equatorial zones you have like no chance of catching any parasitic anything from mosquitoes.

                            Now, encephalitic viruses on the other hand? Hah, have fun.

                            [–]Brisco_County_III 4 points5 points ago

                            Oh yeah, sometimes the story even gets better. The human botfly? Adult flies catch mosquitoes, glue eggs to them, then release them back into the wild, and when they get near a human the larvae hatch, drop off, and burrow into the hole the mosquito made in the skin.

                                    Thank you. I can vaguely recall when I was 3 and I saw these things in my vision while staring at the sky. I was convinced it was the air molecules bouncing off my eyeballs.

                                    I've gotten more intelligent since then...

                                    [–]cappucinomakesmepoop 13 points14 points ago

                                    if you knew about/could say molecules at age 3, i'd say you were off to a pretty good start.

                                      I meant the squiggly things you see in your eye. I agree the post is defiantly a crazy ass parasite.

                                            Doesn't seem likely. Loa loa inhabit the subcutaneous tissue. If this is real and not 'shopped, it's in the vitreous humour.

                                            EDIT: Citation that it could indeed possibly be loa loa posted below. I remain skeptical because a cursory google search and wikipedia seem to suggest that humans are the only known natural resevoir of this species.

                                            [–]fresh_herbal_extract 10 points11 points ago

                                            Humour* (pdf warning) and yes, it's definitely loa loa.

                                                I was hoping someone could be more specific as to exact species and whether it's common for them to appear in, you know, eyeballs. Is this rare or do plenty of toads encounter these? I want answers from experts!

                                                      Humans are the only known natural reservoir. It is estimated that 12-13 million humans are infected with the Loa loa larvae.

                                                      The sentence right before that one on wikipedia is:

                                                      "Human loiasis geographical distribution is restricted to the rain forest and swamp forest areas of West Africa, being especially common in Cameroon and on the Ogooué River."

                                                      Which is a bit relevant.

                                                        I am starting to think that an annual full body scan should be mandatory.

                                                                              I hate going to the eye doctor for just a basic exam! Last time I went they did a more sophisticated test for eye pressure than the one where it just blows a puff of air onto your eye. The more sophisticated one is that they have this tool which has to press up against your eye to gauge pressure. They had to hold my eye open because the urge to blink was so powerful.

                                                                              [–]xpurplexamyx 5 points6 points ago

Perhaps for a worm extraction it would be okay, but for anything more invasive, you need to be conscious. :(

They are often carried by blood sucking flies. Here's an interesting video Edit: Just to point out, Loa Loa does not cause elephantiasis, that's a completely separate parasite

Humans are the most common reservoirs for Loa loa, which like to inhabit subcutaneous tissue. The helminth in the gif is some sort of other species which inhabits the vitreous humor, which is deep to the subcutaneous tissue. editted for clarity

If it's in the eye you can get it removed by an opthalmologist. This is a relatively rare pathology and doesn't really occur in the western world.

                                                                                                                  Same with Stargate Atlantis. It deserved at least two more seasons.

                                                                                                                  I really hope we get a new Stargate series soon. I know i'm in the minority, but I even loved Universe. Although now that I've been watching the older series again I do understand why some people hated how different it was.

What makes it weird is how fast it's moving around. Maybe the frog is actually moving it's throat really slowly and the gif was sped up.

I was fishing and rubbed my eyes. I wear contacts, and I guess an amoebae got in my eye. It started hurting so bad I thought i had cut my eye. I went to the eye doctor and he was like, DUDE GO TO THE HOSPITAL NOW. So I went and found out I had "acanthamoeba keratitis". Basically A WORM IN MY EYE!
