abstract: A 13-year-old Iranian male presented with the diagnosis of Behçet's disease, a systemic disease accompanied by significant anterior and posterior segment inflammation. He had had bilateral lensectomies, which necessitated aphakic soft contact lens fitting. Such optical enhancement of the patient's visual performance in Behçet's disease is an essential part of the overall patient management.
