Keratinisation of the Meibomian gland as an important factor in Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD)

Acta Ophthalmologica, 2009
Abstract Purpose Obstructive Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is a widespread alteration and represents a main reason for evaporative dry eye syndrome. Hyper‐keratinisation of the ductal epithelium in response to various pathological stimuli appears as a typical underlying reason.

[Meibomian glands : part IV. Functional interactions in the pathogenesis of meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD)].

Der Ophthalmologe : Zeitschrift der Deutschen Ophthalmologischen Gesellschaft, 2010
Obstructive dysfunction of the meibomian glands (MGD) is surprisingly frequent in the general population and increases with age. Clinically, the focus is mainly on the consequences at the ocular surface in the sense of an evaporative dry eye syndrome.

The role of intense pulsed light (IPL) in the treatment of meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD)

European Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2019
Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) may result in alteration of the tear film, symptoms of eye irritation, and evaporative dry eye disease (DED). Recent studies suggest that intense-pulsed light (IPL) treatments reduce ocular signs and symptoms, through direct/indirect actions on meibomian glands.
