Uveitis can occur in Behcet's disease. The Standardization of Uveitis Nomenclature (SUN) Working Group reported criteria for its diagnosis.
Criteria - all of the following:
(1) compatible uveitis syndrome (see below)
(2) diagnosis of Behcet disease using the International Study Group for Behcet disease criteria
(3) exclusion of both syphilis and sarcoidosis
Compatible uveitis syndromes - one of the following:
(1) anterior uveitis
(2) anterior and intermediate uveitis
(3) posterior uveitis with retinal vasculitis and/or focal retinal infiltrates ("white patches")
(4) panuveitis with retinal vasculitis and/or focal retinal infiltrates
Uveitis syndrome not compatible with Behcet disease:
(1) posterior uveitis with a choroiditis
