DARK SECRETS: Mum feels pop as parasite slithers from her eyelid | Rare Historical Photos

A mum felt a popping sensation as a "parasite" slithered from her eyelid.

Louise Edwards, from Allerton, woke up on Friday, July 22, to find what looked like a spot on her right eye. At first, the 34-year-old mum thought she had been bitten by some sort of bug.
