Let's talk parasites.

I think I have an eye parasite in my, uh, eye. There's this worm I can see when I look at a white screen; it's clear, and I think I've seen it move, but I'm not too sure. It's been there for awhile, but I've been ignoring, and then for some reason, I decided to research it. I....really do think it's a worm. >_>; It's only in my left eye. It's scaring me. I really wish I had time to go to a doctor. I have no idea how this thing'll damage my eye, and I don't even know how to research the darn thing. The most I can find are infections often found in contact lens wearers, but I've never worn contact lenses before. There is also stuff on worms that come from African flies, but that's in....Africa. Errr...I CAN STILL SEE THE WORM AND IT CREEPS ME OUT TO NO END. I really, really hope my parents can take me to an eye doctor soon. This parasite deal is scary. I....like my eyesight.\
EDIT: Floater? I hope so. :( Probably are, too.

I think it's a floater because you most likely wouldn't be able to see a parasite unless it's on your eye, which probably isn't the case because it would move around more than a floater would when you blink. If it were in your eye and were able to see it, it would have distorted your vision by now. But you should get it checked just in case. D8

Yeah, after getting input from my dad, floaters seem most likely. |D Thanks! I-I've never heard of floaters before this (I wonder if that's bad *swt*).

The African eye parasite that's is creepy. I read an account of a guy who watched and felt it squirm across his eye. Eew. XD;;

A bunch of random discarded proteins, methinks. They're just annoying and in your vision being clear and wormy-like. |D'
