Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Ocular Behcet disease (OBD) is a severe sight-threatening complication of Behcet disease (BD) with a poorly understood etiology, particularly in underrepresented populations such as Pakistan. It often arises from a combination of genetic predisposition, environmental triggers, and immune dysregulation. To address this gap, we explored genetic variants contributing to ocular involvement using whole-exome...
