Bee sting-induced ocular changes.
A six-year-old boy was stung by a bee on his right cornea. A severe conjunctival injection, chemosis, marked corneal edema, and hyphema developed. A partially dislocated lens, partial iris atrophy, and cataract formation were subsequently noted. He was treated with systemic and topical corticosteroids. Later, the subluxated cataract was removed through the pars plana approach.
