Human Meibum and Tear Film Derived (O-Acyl)-Omega-Hydroxy Fatty Acids as Biomarkers of Tear Film Dynamics in Meibomian Gland Dysfunction and Dry Eye Disease

We investigated OAHFAs derived from human meibum and tear film in meibomian gland dysfunction and dry eye disease

Human Meibum and Tear Film Derived (O-acyl)-Omega-Hydroxy Fatty Acids as Biomarkers of Tear Film Dynamics

Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) produces alterations in the tear film (TF) lipid layer that causes excessive evaporation of tears from the ocular surface and subsequent increased osmolarity leading to dry eye disease. However, the molecular …
