Understanding cataract risk factors is a vital topic in preventative medicine and offers hope to the multitude of people in the world who cannot be aided by an intraocular lens implantation. In the multifaceted process of cataract development ultraviolet radiation is one of the important risk factors. This publication focuses on clinical studies, epidemiologic data as well as experimental approaches to ultraviolet radiation and its effects on the lens. Further articles discuss the cataract epidemiology and the biochemistry of the lens. In addition lens research in the 20th century is evaluated with regard to methods and results. The book is dedicated to Professor K. Sasaki from the University of Ishikawa (Japan) and his research over the last twenty years. Ophthalmologists in practice as well as those involved in lens and cataract research or interested in the mechanisms and the pathogenesis of lens opacification in old age will find a wealth of information in this volume. Likewise, it will be essential to physicians working in public health services, environmental medicine, and those concerned with eye damage caused by radiation.

On August 25,1976 Prof. Dr. med. JEAN NORDMANN, Emeritus Professor of Strasbourg University, will celebrate his 80th anniversary. The task of paying tribute to Professor NORDMANN's many services to ophthalmology in a way worthy of the occasion is so difficult that we decided to concentrate on the focal point of his life's work. In this issue scientists engaged in lens research from allover the world offer reports of their latest findings together with their best wishes and felicitations as a birthday gift to the Nestor of lens research. They thereby express their gratitude to Professor NORDMANN, who, with the lifelong in defatigable enthusiasm of a scientist, has most successfully persued the prob lems of lens metabolism. It is our sincerest hope that we may look forward to many more years in which to take advantage of Professor NORDMANN's superior knowledge. Among the contributions to this festive donation we miss the works of some authors who have always held Professor NORDMANN's special inter est. The editor has received several letters of longstanding friends who would have liked to submit a manuscript but had been unable to meet the deadline: Professor NORDMANN may rest assured that they, too, belong to the great number of congratulators from our field of research. We have been able to make this dedication thanks to Professor HENKES who readily agreed to publish our contributions in Documenta Ophthal mologica. Dr. Junk publishers have done their utmost to ensure prompt publication.

This comprehensive volume presents data describing the role of oxidative stress in anterior eye disease. The content is divided into three logical parts: basic science of the cornea, basic science of the lens, and clinical practices. The first two parts include eighteen chapters that discuss topics ranging from oxidative stress and dry eye disease, endogenous protection of corneal cells against oxidative damage, the therapeutic potential of corneal stem cells, etiology of cataracts and preventive measures, corneal degeneration through oxidative stress and cataract formation, and function and dysregulation of ion channels and transporters in the ocular lens, among others. The concluding part is comprised of four chapters devoted to advancements in corneal surgery, cataract and diabetic retinopathy, the clinical treatment of cataracts including traumatic cataracts, and cataracts in the pediatric age group. Studies on the Cornea and Lens is an essential addition to the library or department of physicians and researchers who treat or research these ocular conditions, particularly cataracts. It is also a key resource for cell biologists studying oxidative stress. This book is an authoritative contribution to Springer’s Oxidative Stress in Applied Basic Research and Clinical Practice series.

Further studies were undertaken to determkine whether .gamma.-glutamyl cycle is involved in transporting amino acids from aqueous humor into the lens. Oxoproline levels in rabbit lenses cultured in the presence of methionine and a specific inhibitor of oxoprolinase (imidazolidone-carboxylic acid) and in lenses of rats injected with the inhibitor and the amino acid were found to be unaffected. Investigations of x-irradiated rabbit lenses have shown that the level of reduced glutatbione decreased by 75% three weeks prior to cataract formation while levels of oxidized GSH and protein bound GSH remained unaltered, indicating that GSH synthesis has been reduced or that the tripeptide is lost through leakage out of the lens. Cataractous lenses from x-rayed rabbits showed a decrease in the relative amount of .beta. and .gamma.-crystallins and an increase in .cap alpha.-crystallin and high molecular weight protein aggregates. The development of galactose cataract in lenses from galactose fed rats was investigated to study more accurately changes in active and passive transport of sodium, potassium, and chloride. Results of sodium flux experiments suggest that sodium transport is unimpaired during initial stages of cataract formation, a conclusion consistent with the observation that the level of lens sodium is only slightly elevated. Unlike sodium transport, the turnover rate of potassium increased bya factor of two, while the active accumulation decreased fourfold. In order to evaluate more completely changes in cation and anion concentrations in cataractous lenses, bioelectric potentials were measured and observed to decline gradually over thirteen days, followed by a sudden loss of potential on the fourteenth day when nuclear opacities became visible.
