Abstract
We presented a case of wasp sting of 42 year old, farmer who got stung on the cornea directly. At the time of first examination, the patient had visual acuity of 0.02 in the right eye. Slit lamp examination revealed corneal epithelial desquamation and vesicle, striate keratitis, diffuse stromal edema and fine keratic precipitates on the corneal endothelium. The iris was depigmented and atrophic, and pupil was mydriatic and nonreactive. The lens was opaque at the center of anterior caspsule and fundus was not visualized. 4 months later, the corneal lesion was slightly improved. Clinical findings of iris and lens still unchanged.
