Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) accounts for 86% of dry eye disease. Meibomian glands lie within the eyelid and produce the oil component of the tear film. A deficiency in production of this oil leads to a tear film that quickly evaporates.

Lipiflow is a very comfortable procedure that many patients find refreshing and relaxing. It helps to restore stability to the tear film and provide relief to patients.
