Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is the major cause of ... leading to altered lipid fluidity and a more rigid lipid on the tear film. Additionally, potential mechanical blockage of the gland ...

When these glands become blocked, production of the necessary oils to protect the watery layer on the tear film is compromised thus causes this watery layer to evaporate and leave the eye surface ...

Our multidisciplinary approach combines experimental and computational biophysics with clinical research, cell biology and chemistry to address issues such as tear film structure and function, dry eye ...

TeaRx™ identified the presence of severe Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD), the most common ... By leveraging the analysis of tear fluid composition, the company provides innovative diagnostic ...
