A simple technique of meibography for morphological and functional evaluation of meibomian glands in dry eye conditions [PDF]
Purpose: Dry eye disease (DED) is because of a decrease in the tear film's volume or a change in the composition of tears. Evaporative dry eye is the most common type, which is due to meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD).
