Meibomian Gland Dysfunction Massage Better May 2026
Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) is the leading cause of dry eye disease. It occurs when the tiny oil glands in your eyelids become blocked or produce poor-quality oil. This oil (meibum) normally prevents your tears from evaporating too quickly. When glands are blocked, tears evaporate, leading to redness, burning, grittiness, and blurry vision.
