3 Primary e.g. Hypersecretory Secondary/Contributory e.g. with ADDE Epiphenomenon/Marker for disease e.g. IOSD with induction of hyper keratinization Aging normal vs contribute to dry eye All/Each of the above
4 Tear Film Instability Lipid Deficiency Cause: meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) causing insufficient or unhealthy lipid production Sign: irregular meibomian gland expression, fast tear film break-up time (TFBUT) Aqueous Deficiency Cause: insufficient tear production by accessory and primary lacrimal glands Sign: low Schirmer (tear volume/flow) score Mucin Deficiency Cause: insufficient or unhealthy mucin production Sign: TFBUT
5 Lipid Layer The Antievaporative Layer Outermost layer of the tear film Approximately 0.1 m thick Primary function = prevent evaporation & overflow of tears Produced by meibomian glands along the lower and upper lids. OCULAR SURFACE
6 Definition of MGD Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is a chronic, diffuse abnormality of meibomian glands, characterized by an alteration in the qualitative and/or quantitative secretion of the meibomian glands that may result in alteration of the tear film, symptoms of eye irritation, clinically apparent inflammation, and ocular surface disease.
7 Lid margin neovascularization Clinical Characteristics of MGD Burning Itching Excessive tearing SYMPTOMS of dry eyes Squamous metaplasia of meibomian gland orifices Granular sensation and scratchiness or foreign-body sensation due to crusted debris or dryness Decreased vision or changes in visual clarity due to poor tear film Eyelids stuck together upon waking Meibum alterations (color / composition) Crusty debris around the eye lashes, especially upon waking Eyelids red, especially upon waking Gland drop out Short TFBUT Photos courtesy of Richard Yee, MD, Don Korb, MD and Justin Kwan, MD., Preferred Practice Pattern Guidelines.
