The lens can luxate secondarily to [[Glaucoma - Donkey|glaucoma]] or equine [[Uveitis - Donkey|recurrent uveitis]]. If the subluxated lens is stable and non-painful, then surgical intervention may be avoided. Usually there is '''significant intraocular disease''' present, which will interfere with vision even if the affected lens is surgically removed. '''Enucleation''' is then the only option if pain management is not effective.
