Polish researchers exposed 24 rabbits to microwave radiation (0.1 cm wavelength) for up to 124 hours and found significant eye damage. The microwaves heated the vitreous fluid inside the eyes and caused microscopic lens damage including cell death, structural changes, and capsule thinning. This demonstrates that prolonged microwave exposure can cause cataracts through both heating and direct cellular damage.
