The risk of cataract in relation to metal arc welding

The risk of cataract in relation to metal arc welding

OBJECTIVES: There are indications that solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) increases the risk of cataract, but there is only circumstantial evidence that metal welding, an important occupational source of UVR exposure, is a risk factor. The objective of this study is to unravel if metal welding increa...
