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.

Impact of definition of meibomian gland dysfunction on the frequency of MGD in dry eye disease from the DREAM© study

open access: yesContact Lens and Anterior Eye
Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is a common disease, yet there is no standard clinical definition. This study explored the frequency and characteristics of MGD in dry eye disease (DED) using different clinical definitions.A secondary analysis of data collected from the DREAM© study participants (n = 535) with moderate-to-severe DED was undertaken ...

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.

Need to Increase the Number of Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Treatment Sessions for Patients with Moderate to Severe Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) Patients

Current Eye Research
To evaluate whether patients with moderate-to-severe meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) will benefit from increasing the number of intense pulsed light (IPL) treatment sessions.Ninety Asian adult with MGD (stages 3-4) were enrolled in this retrospective study. In Group1, 30 patients completed the five-session IPL treatment, 63.33% of which also received
