Behcet's Syndrome and blurring of vision

[nhedlind]

Hi, my name is Nerissa, 25 years old, Asian.
I recently had been diagnosed having Behcet's syndrome. The symptoms I have is the bluriness of vision due to inflammation of veins inside my eye and increase sensitivity to light. I had mouth sores/ulcers but that was before my bluriness of vision occur. I am seeking help for more information about my disease particularly Behcet's syndrome affecting the eye.
I wonder if my recent vaccines trigger me having Behcet's syndrome. My blurry vision just started 2 months ago and it happened all of the sudden, a month before that I had shots/vaccination for Hepa B, Tetanus and Varicella.

We recently had an inquiry from Britain on Bechet's Disease. There is probably more that we don't know about the disease than we do know. That said I suspect your vaccinations had nothing to do with the disease.

To take care of your you need:

1. An Eye MD ophthalmologist, ideally one that specializes in retinal disease or uveitis.
2. A Rheumatologist
3. Other types of physicians such as internists or ENT, neurologists may need to be consulted.

You are probably best served by being at a tertiary medical center.
