Abstract The phenolic antioxidant catavidan, used to treat heterozygous male Cat fraser mice for 4 months starting from the age of 2 months, inhibited cataract development in these mice significantly (Z=0.063 using the nonparametric Mann-Whitney test) after 2 months of treatment. However, the differences between the treated and control (untreated) mice became less marked toward the end of the third month and disappeared by the end of the fourth.
