Results indicate that aging mice show dropout of meibomian glands with loss of gland volume and a forward migration of the mucocutaneous junction anterior to the gland orifice; similar age-related ...

[116] This LSCM study of meibomian glands showed significantly decreased basal epithelial cell density, lower acinar unit diameters, higher glandular orifice diameters, and greater inhomogeneity ...

Meibomian glands, tiny oil glands along the edges of the eyelids, secrete lipid-rich meibum to prevent tear evaporation and ...
