Cataracts in Vitamin E Deficiency

Abnormal Protein and Nucleic Acid Metabolism as a Cause of Cataract Formation Induced by Nutritional Deficiency in Rabbits

“…(Zacharias, Goldhaber, and Kinsey, 1950). The only defect so far observed is in the turkey, involving the progressive liquefaction of lens fibres and the-degeneration of lens epithelium (Ferguson, Rigdon, and Couch, 1956).
