This study provides evidence of an association between COVID-19 infection and an increased risk of uveitis flare in patients with Behcet's disease. However, there was no significant evidence to support that baseline immunosuppressive therapy regimens, treatment adjustment after COVID-19 infection, or vaccination status were associated with higher risks of uveitis flare or prolonged COVID-19 course.
