[A case of occupational ultraviolet cataract caused by magnetic particle testing]

Magnetic particle testing, as an efficient non-destructive testing method, has been widely applied in the field of defect detection for precision components. This study reports a case of occupational ultraviolet cataract caused by prolonged exposure of a magnetic particle testing worker to ultraviolet radiation exceeding standard intensity levels. Insufficient awareness of the potential ocular damage caused by long-wave ultraviolet radiation, inadequate provision of protective goggles, and non-compliant occupational hygiene monitoring and health examinations were identified as the primary contributing factors to this case.
