Abstract
Background
Eye injury is one of the most disastrous complications of laser cosmetic treatment, among them, traumatic cataract is very rare.
Methods

Results
The trajectory of laser was unexpectedly found in the lens of both eyes, up to 7 months of follow-up showed that the cataract had no significant effect on vision, only photophobia was retained.
Conclusion
The incidence of cosmetic laser-induced cataract may be much higher than currently realized and appropriate eye protection is very important during cosmetic laser treatment.
