Mindful Application of Aviation Practices in Healthcare.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:There is good evidence that long term exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation increases the risk of cataracts. The 'blue light hazard' is considered a risk factor for retinal changes similar to those seen in macular degeneration. Previous studies ascertaining the prevalence of radiation related ocular disea...
