RESUMO
The histological picture of the normal lens taken from cadaver eyes were fully presented and discussed. In addition, the microscopic change of different types of mature cataract, either on its own [senile mature cataract] or complicated with other systemic diseases as glaucoma and diabetes, was also presented in this study. All lenses were subjected to three different types of decalcification to soften the lens and to overcome the difficulty of obtaining good histological sections. Also, different staining techniques were employed and they proved to be useful in studying both the normal structure of the lens and its histological changes in cataract
