It affects millions of patients in the U.S. and many more worldwide. The Meibomian Glands (or oil glands) typically produce healthy, liquid olive-oil content to keep the tear film stable. Over time, the oils may become unhealthy, inspissated and toothpaste-like, which leads to undesirable symptoms. What are symptoms of dry eye disease or MGD? Dry, gritty eye, itchy eyes, light sensitivity, excessive tearing, foreign body sensation, lid infections/sties, red eyes, contact lens discomfort, fluctuating or blurry vision and more.
