12 Horrifying things found living inside a human body (With Pictures)

4. Worms In The Eye

Worms can apparently find their way into the human body pretty easily. These creepy crawlies have been known to get into the brain, but they’ve also lodged into the human eye. In 2010, a man named John Matthews from Iowa was having blurry vision, and kept seeing dark spots. He didn’t know what was wrong, so he went to see an ophthalmologist. Matthews was then told that he had a parasitic worm in his eye. As if this wasn’t frightening enough, the worm was starting to eat his retina. The way that worms can live and thrive in humans is still a mystery, but it’s safe to say that all Matthews wanted to do was find a way to have the creature removed promptly.
