A 19-year-old male with advanced renal failure developed bilateral cataracts indistinguishable from those considered characteristic of calcium deficiency. The biochemical findings during the dialysis treatment showed severe hypocalcemic episodes. A hypothetical mechanism to explain this kind of cataract is mentioned.
