Discussions about the dangers of cellular communications have been fiercely waged by pundits for several years. But who today can imagine a normal life without a mobile phone? And nevertheless, experts recommend not to try to be in touch all the time, since the safety of cell phones has not been confirmed in the long term.
Israeli scientists from the Institute of Technology (Technion), led by Professor Levi Schechter, concluded that radiation from mobile phones can damage eyesight.
Researchers have experimentally found that radiation from a cell phone can cause irreversible changes in the eyes. The experimental animals were calves, which were irradiated for 12 days, alternating 50-minute exposure sessions with 10-minute pauses. As a result, lesions appeared in the eye lenses, affecting the optical qualities of the eye.
However, this is still a trifle. Usually, users of cellular communications are afraid of brain cancer, the Pravda newspaper notes. Nevertheless, Professor Anthony Swerdlow and his colleagues from the British Institute for Cancer Research have found that in more than 10 years of the existence of cellular communication, the number of people with brain tumors has not increased.
“The results of our research show that there is no significant risk during the first decade of use, but whether there are long-term risks is still unknown, since cellular communication has appeared relatively recently,” the scientist said.
The results of exposure to radiation can only appear if it is long-term, experts say. Meanwhile, in almost all series of experiments confirming the harm of mobile phones, objects received huge doses of microwave radiation.

Dangerous mobile phones arrive in stores
Doctors have repeatedly argued that mobile phones are unhealthy. In order to avoid radiation, which begins to harm human health, about six months after the start of using the phone, doctors recommend changing old mobile phones to new ones more often.
Mobile phones are a cure for Alzheimer's disease
American scientists have contributed to the longstanding debate about the health risks of mobile phones. According to new data, the use of cellular communications has one major advantage: it is able to protect older people from senile dementia.
Scientists recommend protecting children from mobile phones
Rospotrebnadzor urges all parents to protect their children from using mobile phones whenever possible. According to experts, the electromagnetic field of mobile devices has the most unfavorable effect on the child's body. The effect of electromagnetic radiation is often compared to radio interference.
Mobile phones are an obstacle to healthy sleep
Scientists strongly recommend keeping mobile phones away from bed before going to bed. Otherwise, there will be a lot of problems like headaches, confusion and even depression. The work was published by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Symposium on the Advancement of Electromagnetic Research and funded by the Mobile Manufacturers Forum, representing major mobile phone manufacturers.
Experts debate the safety of mobile phones
British scientists strongly doubt the safety of mobile phones for human health, and this is despite the data available today to support this postulate. However, scrupulous experts do not rule out that long-term exposure to mobile devices may be associated with an increased risk of developing cancer.
