Meibomian gland dysfunction. III. Meibomian gland lipids.

Investigative ophthalmology & visual science, 1989
The lipid components of meibomian gland excreta were evaluated in rabbits after they received 2% topical epinephrine dropped into their eyes daily for a period of 6 months to a year to induce meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). Changes were compared to excreta obtained from seven age-matched, untreated control rabbits.
