Abstract：
:Ophthalmomyiasis interna caused severe intraocular inflammation and loss of vision in two eyes. In the first eye, the organism was found in the vitreous and created a severe uveitis; a second-stage larva of Hypoderma lineatum was later removed from the anterior chamber. Phthisis bulbi ensued with loss of all vision. In a second eye, a subretinal maggot was observed to produce tracks in the pigment epithelium, with subretinal and vitreous hemorrhage. Severe uveitis and traction retinal detachment later developed. Despite successful reattachment of the retina, visual acuity remained only light perception. These cases demonstrate that ophthalmomyiasis interna is not always a benign condition.
