The fluorescence spectra of nucleus and cortex material from human lenses obtained as a result of extracapsular cataract extraction were observed. With advancing cataract formation the fluorescence spectra changed in a very characteristic way. The changes in ascorbic acid were compared with those caused by cataract development. Clinical application of corresponding measuring instruments would appear to make sense.
