    Abstract:
    The content of sialic acids has been investigated in the lacrimal liquid in patients with senile cataract as well as in the intracapsular extracted crystalline lenses. The highest level of sialic acids was detected in the lacrimal liquid and in the extracted crystalline lenses of patients with mature senile cataract. In this patients a higher frequency of the incipient senile cataract at the other eyeball has been noted.
