A case of Behcet ’ s-like retinopathy of traumatic rupture of the lens capsule

The causes of uveitis included infections, systemic disease, autoimmune syndromes, post-traumatic, postsurgical, and lens-induced. Lens-induced uveitis is commonly associated with break of the lens capsule. We report a unique case, which is the first case to our knowledge, of uveitis caused by traumatic rupture of the lens capsule presenting Behcet’s-like fundus change. Ocular manifestation is unique and systemic factors should be considered.
