Infection with , the larval stage of the pig tapeworm , is referred to as cysticercosisIt is the most prevalent human ocular platyhelminth infection. Food contamination, particularly from undercooked pork, contaminated water, and vegetables, is the cause of it. It is frequently observed in areas with inadequate sanitation. We report a unique case of a 7-year-old girl who had unilateral eccentric proptosis and decreased ocular motility in downward gaze due to isolated right superior oblique muscle cysticercosis.
