EXPERIMENTAL INJURY TO THE EYE WITH ULTRA-HIGH-FREQUENCY ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS

A. P. Balutina · 1965

Researchers exposed 20 rabbits to a 1-cm range UHF-field at 120 mW/cm² for 20 to 50 minutes per session, repeated 69 times. No new lens opacities appeared, but pre-existing congenital opacities in 9 of 20 rabbits were distinctly enhanced, especially in lenses with posterior subcapsular cataract. In 7 of 9 affected rabbits the enhanced opacities resolved beginning 14-21 days after the last exposure.

The Effect of Microwaves on the Central Nervous System

W. Bergman · 1965

The study reports that centimeter-wave microwaves affect circulation, respiration, temperature control, water balance, albumin and sugar concentration in cerebrospinal fluid, hydrogen ion concentration, EEG, GSR, sleep, and conscious awareness. Depending on dosage, the waves stimulate either the sympathetic or parasympathetic system. Undamped or modulated frequencies are more effective than damped waves, and biological effects result from resonance absorption in ganglia.

Relationship of Environmental Factors to Lenticular Changes in Microwave Workers

S. F. Cleary, B. S. Pasternack, M. Eisenbud · 1964

Researchers examined 736 microwave workers and 559 controls for subclinical lens defects using ophthalmologic examination. Lens defect incidence increased linearly with age in both groups but at a significantly greater rate in microwave workers, attributable to lens opacity and posterior polar defects correlated with exposure parameters. A retrospective study of 2,946 cataract cases and 2,164 controls found no significant increase in relative risk of cataract formation associated with military radar work.
