Abstract

DIROFILARIASIS is caused by a Filariid parasite of the genus Dirofilaria. This zoonotic infection is spread by mosquito vector from animal to HUMAN. OCULAR DIROFILARIASIS involving the eye and adnexa is rare. A nodule in the right eye had developed in a 20-year-old soldier from Mazandaran province, north of Iran. The mass was removed surgically and measured 5×5 mm. The specimen was identified on the basis of microscopic section by the presence of longitudinal cuticular ridges, the thick muscle cell layer and the presence of 2 nuclei in the lateral cord. The worm was identified as a Dirofilaria, (presumptively D. conjunctivae). This report is one of the first reports of OCULAR DIROFILARIASIS from Iran.
