Figure 5.

The pictures illustrate some lenses, which developed different kinds of cataracts due to irradiation. In the upper part of each paired picture, the unedited grey images are illustrated. Below there are the false color pictures. All pictures include a circular-shaped red line around the lens, which symbolizes the area Matlab detected as the lens. The upper pictures (a–e) are taken directly after lens extraction from the eye. The lenses (f–j) are irradiated. The pictures in (a) present a lens before UVB irradiation leading to the pictures in (f) after UVB irradiation. An example for a UVA irradiated lens is presented in (b,g) before and after irradiation, respectively. Lenses before 460 nm irradiation can be seen in (c,d), whereas (h,i) represent the irradiated ones. The lens (e,j) represents the control group.
