Management of Meibomian Gland Dysfunction: A Review
MGD is the main cause of evaporative dry eye, characterized by meibomian gland duct obstruction and/or glandular secretion changes, which affect tear film stability and reduce quality of life. The treatment goal is to improve meibomian gland secretion and restore tear film stability.
Quantitative analysis of morphological and functional features in Meibography for Meibomian Gland Dysfunction: Diagnosis and Grading
Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) is a common ocular surface disease and a major cause of dry eye, associated with various ocular and systemic conditions, and negatively affecting patients' quality of life. Current diagnostic methods often rely on the experience of the clinician, with issues such as difficulty in quantification and observer variability, and some patients find it challenging to cooperate with squeezing tests. Non-contact meibomian gland photography allows for direct observation o
Dry eye disease: A review of diagnostic approaches and treatments
Dry eye (DE) is a common ocular disease that results in eye discomfort, visual disturbance and substantially affects the quality of life. It has a multifactorial etiology involving tear film instability, increased osmolarity of the tear film and inflammation of the ocular surface with potential damage to the ocular surface. This review discusses the classification, diagnostic approaches and treatments of DE.
TFOS DEWS II Report Executive Summary
Dry eye disease (DED) affects millions of people worldwide and is a common reason for patient visits. TFOS launched TFOS DEWS II in 2015, involving 150 experts and taking over two years to complete the report, the executive summary of which is presented in this article.
