Uveitis can also be secondary to severe keratitis or caused by trauma or penetrating foreign bodies.
Secondary uveitis and bacterial infection also occur in association with [[Encephalitozoon cuniculi – Rabbit|''Encephalitozoon cuniculi'']] infection. The protozoan is thought to enter the lens while it is developing ''in utero'' and eventually leads to capsular rupture. Release of lens material into the anterior chamber leads to a phacoclastic uveitis.
