Description: Up to 70% of patients with Behçet’s syndrome (or Behçet’s disease) will get eye involvement, and current estimates from around the world indicate that severe visual impairment occurs in 25% of involved eyes although with newer treatments this is becoming less common. Therefore, the detection and treatment of eye disease in a timely manner is vital.
