Survey of Ophthalmology, 1996
Blepharitis is probably the most common disease entity seen in the general ophthalmologist's office. A significant proportion of these cases are secondary to meibomian gland disease. This review outlines our knowledge of the histopathology, lipid abnormalities and role of microorganisms in meibomian gland dysfunction. We will also review the physiology

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1956
Meibomian gland tumors have been the subject of an uncommon degree of controversy concerning the question of their actual existence, the types of neoplasm that may develop, and the degree of malignancy that they may possess. Much of this controversy stemmed from the rarity of these tumors, which led to opinions on histology and clinical behavior based ...

Video Imaging of the Meibomian Gland
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1994We report herein a new method for observing the structure of the meibomian glands. This type of meibography uses a one-chip infrared video camera, a hand-held transilluminating light source, and a video monitor. The infrared camera is positioned in the visual axis of the patient's eye.

Therapy for meibomian gland disease
Ophthalmology Clinics of North America, 2003Great advances have been made in the past half-century in our understanding of meibomian gland function and of the many inflammatory, hormonal, and infectious processes leading to its dysfunction. These advances have led to an exploration of exciting new avenues for treatment of this common but frustrating disease entity.

Transitory alkali exposure on meibomian gland orifices induces meibomian gland dysfunction
The Ocular Surface, 2023To determine pathological changes of meibomian glands (MGs) after transient exposure of the rat eyelid margin to alkali solution.Filter paper infiltrated with 1 N sodium hydroxide solution was applied to the eyelid margin of Sprague-Dawley rats for 30 s under general anesthesia, without touching the conjunctiva, after which the ocular surface and ...

Adenocarcinoma of the Meibomian Gland
A.M.A. Archives of Ophthalmology, 1959Although Baldauf described some tumors of the Meibomian gland in 1870, it was Allaire in 1891 who first identified an adenocarcinoma of the Meibomian gland. Since that time there have been approximately 120 Meibomian gland carcinomas reported in the literature (Bibliography).

Prevalence of Meibomian Gland Dysfunction
Optometry and Vision Science, 1990ABSTRACT This study was performed to determine the prevalence of Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) and to determine which patient profile factors might be associated with the syndrome. Patients were randomly selected, apparently normal patients presenting for routine vision examinations.

Androgen Regulation of the Meibomian Gland
1998Androgens are known to control the development, differentiation and lipid production of sebaceous glands throughout the body.1 Given that the meibomian gland is a large sebaceous gland,1,2 we hypothesize that androgens may regulate meibomian gland function, enhance the quality and quantity of lipids produced by this tissue and stimulate the formation ...
