  • To highlight current and emerging treatment strategies.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of recent studies on Behçet's disease.
  • Focus on ocular manifestations and their management.
  • Analysis of pathogenesis and treatment advancements.

Main Results:

  • Ocular manifestations are diverse, including uveitis, macular edema, and retinal vasculitis.
  • Autoimmune and genetic factors play a role in pathogenesis.
  • New imaging and treatments offer improved patient management.

Conclusions:

  • Behçet's disease requires multidisciplinary management due to its systemic nature.
  • Ophthalmological care is crucial for preserving vision.
  • Ongoing research into pathogenesis and treatment is vital for better outcomes.
