Understanding Meibomian Gland Dysfunction
Meibomian glands are responsible for producing the oil layer of your tears, which prevents rapid evaporation.
When these glands become blocked or do not function properly, it leads to tear instability and dry eye symptoms.
MGD is increasingly common due to:
- Long screen usage
- Reduced blinking
- Environmental factors
- Age-related changes
Signs You May Have Meibomian Gland Dysfunction
You may need evaluation if you experience:
- Dryness or irritation in the eyes
- Burning or stinging sensation
- Redness along the eyelids
- Watery eyes despite dryness
- Blurred or fluctuating vision
- Eye fatigue after screen use
- Crusting or stickiness around eyelids
