目的：热敷疗法应用于皮肤的闭眼睑已被推荐作为治疗睑板腺功能障碍（MGD）。以前的研究已经评估了热敷治疗对泪膜荧光素破裂时间和泪液蒸发速率的影响。本研究的目的是确定在5分钟、15分钟和30分钟的温湿敷治疗后，泪膜脂质层厚度（TFLLT）是否发生改变。方法：20例诊断为干眼与MGD相关的患者，基线TFLLT为
PURPOSE: Warm-compress therapy applied to the skin of the closed eyelids has been recommended as a treatment for meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). Previous studies have evaluated the effects of warm-compress therapy on tear-film fluorescein break-up time and tear evaporation rate. The purpose of this study was to determine if tear-film lipid layer thickness (TFLLT) was altered following 5, 15, and 30 minutes of warm, moist compress therapy.METHODS: Twenty patients with a diagnosis of dry eye associated with MGD and a baseline TFLLT of
