Cataractogenesis is an example of a late biologic effect of radiation.
Cataractogenesis is the process in which cataract formation occurs. Cataract is the disease of the eye in which the crystalline lens becomes opaque. It is one of the major reason for blindness in the world. It is believed that cataract can even be induced due to exposure to very less quantity of radiations.
Biologic effect of radiation is the one in which the exposure of radiations can induce damages and disease inside the body. The damage can either be somatic or to the germ cells (gametes). The cells that have rapid growth are more prone to the effects.
