Looking into a microwave oven does not damage the eyes.No studies have found that microwave radiation causes cancer, even with exposure levels far greater than normal radiation leakage. Microwave ovens do not cause cancer, as microwave radiation is non-ionizing, and therefore does not have the cancer risks associated with ionizing radiation such as X-rays.The inside portions of thicker foods are mainly heated by heat conducted from the outer portions. 2.45 GHz microwaves can only penetrate approximately 1 centimeter ( 3⁄ 8 inch) into most foods.
