Meibomian gland imaging: A review
African Vision and Eye Health, 2015 The meibomian glands of the upper and lower eyelids play a valuable role in secreting the lipidlayer of the tear film. Disturbances in meibomian gland function may result in altered secretion andvariations in tear composition which may lead to meibomian ...

Intraductal meibomian gland probing and its efficacy in the treatment of meibomian gland dysfunction [PDF]
Survey of Ophthalmology, 2021 Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is a major cause of dry eye, affecting millions worldwide. Intraductal meibomian gland probing (MGP) aims to open obstructed meibomian glands using a small probe to promote meibum secretion. MGP has received increasing interest since 2010, and we critically evaluated the literature on the efficacy and safety of MGP ...
