Diamond Bur Microblepharoexfoliation, Intense Pulse Light and Meibomian Gland Expression for Evaporative Dry Eye

Dry Eye Disease Clinical Trial

Official title:
Diamond Bur Microblepharoexfoliation Combined With Intense Pulse Light and Meibomian Gland Expression for Evaporative Dry Eye: A Short-term Controlled Study

Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of microblepharoeexfoliation (MBE), intense pulse light (IPL) and meibomian gland expression (MGX) combination in patients with meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). The main question it aims to answer are: - Does MBE-IPL-MGX treatment improve dry eye symptoms? - Does MBE-IPL-MGX treatment improve dry eye signs? Participants were assigned to receive either three sessions of MBE-IPL-MGX treatment and home-based therapy (treatment group) or home-based therapy alone (control group). The investigators will compare both groups to see if MBE-IPL-MGX treatment is superior to home-based therapy.

Clinical Trial Description

MBE is a novel in-office treatment that works by exfoliating the eyelid margins to remove the accumulated biofilm debris, epithelial keratinization and capped meibomian glands, resulting in better meibum outflow . Different studies have shown that MBE improves DED symptoms [1,2], demodex blepharitis [1-4] and meibomian gland function [2,3,5] In addition, meta-analyses recommend combining IPL with meibomian gland expression (MGX) compared to IPL or MGX alone [6-8]. However, the investigators have not found any studies evaluating the benefits of MBE combined with IPL and MGX. Consequently, the purpose of the current study is to evaluate whether MBE combined with IPL and MGX leads to an improvement of symptoms and signs in patients with DED due to MGD. ;
