Impact of topical prostaglandin analogs on meibomian gland morphology and its association with prostaglandin-associated periorbitopathy

Topical PGA use is associated with significant meibomian gland dysfunction and morphological damage, which worsens with increasing PAP severity. These findings highlight a potential diagnostic role for detailed meibomian gland assessment in monitoring PGA-induced ocular surface toxicity and may contribute to improved therapeutic management in glaucoma patients.

Abstract

Topical PGA use is associated with significant meibomian gland dysfunction and morphological damage, which worsens with increasing PAP severity. These findings highlight a potential diagnostic role for detailed meibomian gland assessment in monitoring PGA-induced ocular surface toxicity and may contribute to improved therapeutic management in glaucoma patients.
