Title

The effects of microwave radiation on rabbit's retina

Pages

  74-79

Abstract

 Purpose: Mobile cell phones are used extensively these days, and their Microwave (MW) radiation has been shown to affect the eye. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effects of MW radiation on rabbit Retina. Methods: This experimental study (concluded in 2015) was conducted on 40 adult white New Zealand rabbits. A Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) cell phone simulator was used for MWIrradiation. The rabbits were randomized into five groups (8 in each) and treated as follows: Group 1: no Irradiation (sham); Group 2: Irradiation at 10 cm for 1 day; Group 3: Irradiation at 30 cm for 1 day; Group 4: Irradiation at 10 cm for 3 days; and Group 5: Irradiation at 30 cm for 3 days. Scotopic and photopic Electroretinography (ERG) responses were obtained at baseline and 7 days after the last exposure. Then all the rabbits were euthanized, and their eyes were enucleated and sent for pathology examination. KruskaleWallis and Chi-Square tests were used to evaluate intergroup differences in ERG parameters and histological findings, respectively. Results: ERG responses obtained 7 days after Irradiation did not show any statistically significant difference between the groups (P > 0. 1, for all tested parameters). There were statistically non-significant trends toward greater changes in the MW irradiated eyes. In pathological examination, Retina was normal with no sign of degeneration or infiltration. Ciliary body congestion was observed in greater fraction of those who received higher MW doses. (P ¼ 0. 005). Conclusions: Histopathologically, cell phone simulated MWIrradiation had no significant detrimental effect on the Retina. However, Ciliary body congestion was observed in greater fraction of those who received higher MW doses. Although there was no significant difference between posttreatment mean ERG values, there were statistically non-significant trends toward greater changes in the MW irradiated eyes.
