The eye lens is a highly radiosensitive tissue. A cataract, defined as clouding of the eye lens, is associated with exposure to ionizing radiation. In a detailed review, the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) suggested that the eye lens may be more radiosensitive than previously thought [1]. Several epidemiological studies have focused on cataract prevalence in atomic-bomb survivors in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The increasing incidence of cataract with increasing time after radiation exposure led to the estimation of a lower- or no-dose threshold [2,3].
