title: Electric cataract: a rare clinical entity.
abstract: Bilateral crystalline lens opacities developed in a 39-year-old black male who had been involved in an electrical accident approximately 1 yr before our examination. The anterior subcapsular opacities had feathered edges and a slightly raised center. The typical appearance and progressive course of the opacities, as well as the history, led to the diagnosis of electric cataract.
