The influence of radiation damping on strong electromagnetic waves in cold plasmas, a problem of high interest for the emission of pulsars and the structure of the pulsar magnetosphere, is estimated. This is done by considering the motion of the plasma particles in the macroscopically selfconsistent field and calculating the incoherent part of the radiation field. This allows to estimate the range of physical parameters for which the macroscopically selfconsistent description is a valid approximation. In particular we find for linearly polarized waves that there exists a narrow parameter range near the critical solutions where radiation damping is considerably reduced. In addition, the effect of radiation damping on a strong electromagnetic wave is estimated using analytical solutions of the Lorentz-Dirac equation for charged particles in circularly and linearly polarized vacuum waves, respectively.
