Changes in the distribution of the tear film lipid layer after intensive pulsed light combined with meibomian gland expression in patients with meibomian gland dysfunction
IPL combined with MGX reduced the vertical distribution of lipids in patients with MGD by reducing lower tear film lipid layer stasis. Thus, the Placido disc tear film analyzer is a useful tool for analyzing lipid layer distribution in MGD.
