Introduction: This study investigated the equivocal association between contact lens (CL) wear and meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) by comparing the morphological, functional and subjective outcomes of CL wearers versus control, non-CL wearers. CL wearers were examined as two cohorts based on the annual attendance of follow-up visits (FLU-attended these visits, whereas non-FLU did not).

Methods: Habitual logMAR visual acuity, invasive and non-invasive tear break-up time, Schirmer test, Efron grading scales, meibum quality score (MQS), meibum expressibility score (MES), meibomian gland (MG) loss, lid margin abnormalities and subjective dry eye (DE) symptoms were assessed.
