Article Synopsis
- - Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is a chronic eye condition characterized by meibomian gland blockages and lipid issues, and a rat model was developed to study the mechanisms behind these obstructions.
- - The study involved assessing tear production, tear film stability, and structural changes in the meibomian glands over 4, 8, and 16 weeks using various staining techniques and RNA sequencing.
- - Findings indicated that prolonged meibomian gland obstruction leads to significant histological changes, increased corneal damage, and altered gene expression related to lipid metabolism and inflammatory pathways, suggesting that such obstructions are a key cause of MGD.
Purpose: To evaluate the impact of incomplete blink rate on corneal epithelial thickness after transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (Trans-PRK) surgery.
Methods: Trans-PRK patients were divided into two groups based on preoperative incomplete blinking rates, namely rates ≤0.5 (41 right eyes, group A) and rates >0.
