Growth Hormone Influence on the Morphology and Size of the Mouse Meibomian Gland

Journal of Ophthalmology, 2016
Purpose. We hypothesize that growth hormone (GH) plays a significant role in the regulation of the meibomian gland. To test our hypothesis, we examined the influence of GH on mouse meibomian gland structure. Methods.

Intraductal meibomian gland probing and its efficacy in the treatment of meibomian gland dysfunction [PDF]

Survey of Ophthalmology, 2021
Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is a major cause of dry eye, affecting millions worldwide. Intraductal meibomian gland probing (MGP) aims to open obstructed meibomian glands using a small probe to promote meibum secretion. MGP has received increasing interest since 2010, and we critically evaluated the literature on the efficacy and safety of MGP ...
