The Cause of Dry Eye Syndrome
Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) is the primary cause of Dry Eye Syndrome and occurs when the oil glands within the eyelids (Meibomian glands) harden and become clogged. Without enough oil, the tears evaporate too quickly which leads to irritation often experienced after activities such as extended computer use. The best treatment for MGD is to clean and warm the eyelids daily. These therapies remove obstructions and soften the oil within the Meibomian glands to improve the outflow of oil. If left untreated, clogged oil glands can deteriorate over time and result in chronic pain.
