Orbital myiasis is a potentially destructive infestation of the orbital tissues. It is uncommon in clinical practice and is seen in patients with poor hygiene with debilitated or immunocompromised state. We report a case of orbital myiasis in an empty socket of an immunocompetent individual. A 65-year-old immunocompetent patient was found to have orbital myiasis in an empty socket status postevisceration, for which he underwent treatment by manual removal of the larvae after application of a suffocating agent, turpentine oil. A total of 12 larvae were removed over the ensuing week. The tissues healed with secondary intention leaving an irregular healthy scar. It was noteworthy that once eviscerated the eye was neglected by the patient. Empty orbital sockets are potential sites for infestations.
