Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.Abstract A healthy tear film is vital for ocular surface integrity and relies on the coordinated function of the lacrimal glands, meibomian glands and conjunctival goblet cells. Dysfunction in any of these elements can lead to dry eye disease (DED). This systematic review and meta‐analysis evaluated the efficacy of low‐level light therapy (LLLT) as a ...

Ocular Manifestations of Metabolic Syndrome: A Systemic Vascular Phenotype
Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, Volume 28, Issue 11, Page 9809-9818, November 2026.ABSTRACT Context Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is defined by central obesity, insulin resistance, hypertension and dyslipidemia. MetS affects over one‐third of US adults. Beyond its cardiovascular burden, MetS has clinically relevant associations with ocular health and may contribute to a systemic vascular and neuro‐metabolic phenotype involving the retina,

The development of meibomian glands in mice.
Molecular vision, 2010 The purpose of this study was to characterize the natural history of meibomian gland morphogenesis in the mouse.Embryonic (E) and post natal (P) C57Bl/6 mouse pups were obtained at E18.5, P0, P1, P3, P5, P8, P15, and P60. Eyelids were fixed and processed for en bloc staining with Phalloidin/DAPI to identify gland morphogenesis, or frozen for ...
