Fundus examination of the right eye showed disc edema, multiple evanescent gray-white outer retinal lesions all over the fundus with a white thread-like mobile structure in the superior macula suggesting a worm-like structure [Figure 1].

High-definition optical coherence tomography (HD-OCT) scans through the retina at the site of the worm showed hypo- and hyper-reflective structures in the subretinal space suggesting the subretinal location of the worm with surrounding inflammation [Figure 2].

Laser photocoagulation of the worm was done (400 mW, 0.2 s, 300 spots, 200 mu spot size) [Figure 3].
