A 6 year old boy presents to his with presence of foreign body in his left eye and diminished vision 1 week earlier. His parents do not report any fever or concurrent illnesses. The patient has taken no recent medications except for multivitamins. His parents deny a history of allergies, and his vaccination schedule is up to date. The patient was born full term and has no siblings. The family history is significant only for maternal gestational diabetes and hypothyroidism. No parental consanguinity is noted. Funduscopic examination was done. What are you views.
