註釋
A search of the literature has revealed that ionizing radiations produce deleterious ocular effects, the most prominent being the development of cataracts. Retinal damage has also been reported. The threshold dose for ocular damage has not been definitely established but a single large dose of radiation seems more harmful to the lens than an equivalent amount of small radiation doses. A considerable number of studies have been devoted to the effects of ionizing radiation upon biochemical processes of the eye. The effects of X-rays have been studied in some detail, but almost no information exists on the effects of neutrons, protons, mesons, microwaves, and ultrasonic radiation. Much more effort must be expended on dose measurements and their interpretation before a full understanding of the problem of the effects of radiation on the eye can be achieved. Experimenters should expre s their results in terms of energy absorbed by the ocular tissue so there will be a basis for deriving the RBE.
