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 ...
