<bold>Purpose: </bold>To evaluate the parafoveal macular microvasculature and the macular function in patients with retinal vasculitis associated with Beh & ccedil;et's uveitis.<bold>Methods: </bold>In 14 patients with inactive Beh & ccedil;et's uveitis and 26 control individuals (13 with nonocular Beh & ccedil;et's syndrome and 13 healthy subjects), we analyzed the retinal nerve fiber layer, ganglion cell layer, full retinal thickness, foveal avascular zone area and sectorial parafoveal vascular density in the superficial vascular plexus, intermediate capillary plexus, and deep capillary plexus using SPECTRALIS optical coherence tomography (OCT) 2 and OCT angiography. Macular sensitivity was analyzed using an MP-3 microperimeter.<bold>Results: </bold>Eighteen eyes (78%) had a best-corrected visual acuity >= 20/25. Significant differences were found in Beh & ccedil;et's uveitis in comparison with the controls on the OCT and OCT angiography: 14.8%, 22.4%, and 14.9% ganglion cell layer thinning in the global, nasal, and inferior sectors, respectively; 6%, 13.2%, and 7.5% full retinal thickness thinning in the superior, nasal, and inferior sectors; and 16.8%, 14.9%, 23.6%, 15.8%, and 12.6% mean deep capillary plexus density reduction in the global, superior, nasal, inferior, and temporal sectors. Microperimetry data demonstrated significant mean reductions of 21% and 23.6% in central and average macular sensitivities and 28.8%, 40.4%, 27.7%, and 24.2% in the superior, nasal, inferior, and temporal sectors, respectively. Outer plexiform layer elevations were observed in Beh & ccedil;et's uveitis (69.6%).<bold>Conclusion: </bold>Beh & ccedil;et's uveitis presented structural and functional macular damage despite good best-corrected visual acuity, mainly affecting the nasal sector and the deep capillary plexus. On OCT and OCT angiography, quantitative and qualitative changes can be valuable biomarkers of ocular involvement in Beh & ccedil;et's syndrome.
