TAIWAN (KRON) - What was originally thought to be an eye infection turned out to be something far worse.

Instead of treating an infection, doctors at the University Hospital in Taiwan were shocked to find four bees embedded in the eye of a 29-year-old Taiwanese woman named He.

The bees were reportedly feeding on her tear ducts under her swollen eyelids, according to CTS News.

He had come to the hospital after experiencing severe pain in her eye.

The hospital's head of ophthalmology, Dr Hung Chi-ting said at a press conference that such bees nest near graves and in fallen trees, so chances of coming across them while hiking in the mountains are high, according to Apple Daily Taiwan.

He confirmed she was at a family member's grave pulling out weeds when she felt as if she got dirt into her eye and flushed it out with water.

After that, He says she started experiencing a stinging pain and teary eyes.

"I saw something that looked like insect legs, so I pulled them out under a microscope slowly, and one at a time without damaging their bodies," Dr. Hung said.

He was a She, damn.

Some dust particle (or whatever it was) entered my left eye yesterday as I left my car and it annoyed me to hell for like 5/10 minutes while I scratched.

Bees in your eye or spiders in your ear?

Both situations suck, ofc, but bees in the eyes would be worse I figure. For me atleast.

"He had come to the hospital..."
"He confirmed she was at a family member's..."
"After that, He says she started..."
