Expert Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) Care for Lakewood Residents

Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) is the leading cause of evaporative dry eye disease, affecting up to 86% of dry eye patients. The meibomian glands in your eyelids produce the essential oil layer of your tear film. When these glands become blocked or dysfunctional, tears evaporate too quickly, causing chronic dryness, irritation, and vision fluctuations. Early diagnosis with meibography imaging and treatment with advanced therapies like IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) can restore gland function before permanent damage occurs.
