If you deal with dry eyes, recurrent styes, or are considering contact lenses, we recommend our Detailed Dry Eye Evaluation to examine your meibomian glands, lid and lash health, and tear production.
Meibomian glands secrete the oil that keeps your tears in your eyes. Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) can lead to the atrophy of your glands, which can cause chronic dryness, irritation, and discomfort of your eyes over time.
