Loa Loa worms (also known as the "eye worm") are classified as filarial worms, meaning they thrive in human tissue. The Loa Loa worm is also called the "eye worm" because they often migrate through the eye and surrounding subsurface areas. At one time, prior to the 1920s, loa loa worm infections occurred in the United States. Today, however, they mainly infect people who are native to Sudan, and those who live in or near Central and West Africa's swamps and rain forests.

There are no pain nerves in the eyeball. When you get a hair in your eye, it's the eyelid that hurts.
HOLY COW! I want to say how brave you were to do that. I have some kind of clearish worm thing that lives in/on my eye (among other areas) as well. About a month ago it came out of the corner of my eye - causing me to go to the ER. They didn't see anything in my actual eyeball... meanwhile I've been suffering from neural toxicity - they think due to a medication problem - and evidently been having visual hallucinations, mania and so on. But that seems to have been calming down. Today, I looked in the mirror and saw one of the worm guys hanging out on the colored part (Iris?) of my eye - so it was pretty clear to see. I tried to pick it out and save it - without freaking out, squishing it or losing it...and I didn't succeed. So, I'm wondering - obviously you used tweezers. Is there any other advice for collection in order to identify the %(*%&(#*$&(*#& beasts. Also, it may sound odd, but I think they get on your skin and somehow melt back in really quickly. So, now, I don't know if I have neural toxicity AND parasites or if the toxicity is getting worse or if the parasites are getting worse and there isn't toxicity...
