What is Meibomian Gland Dysfunction

Sounds Strange . . . But MGD is the Most Common Eye Condition

Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) may be one of the most common eye problems you’ve never heard of. Its odd-sounding name is probably part of the problem. Another name for MGD is “meibomianitis,” which sure isn’t any easier to remember!

Meibomian gland dysfunction is a blockage or some other abnormality of the meibomian glands so they don’t secrete enough oil into the tears.
