Dry Eye Clinical Trial
Official title:
Meibomian Gland Probing in the Sub-Acute Phase of Patients With Stevens-Johnson Syndrome/Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis
The investigators' aim is to study the effects of mechanical expression of meibomian glands on eyelid disease, ocular surface health in the subacute phase of SJS/TEN. The primary outcome is to use meibomian gland imaging to assess the health and caliber of the meibomian glands of both lower eyelids, between the treated and non-treated eyes before and after the intervention. Monitoring of outcomes will be measured by comparing the results of meibography at the initial visit and at the 6-month follow-up. The secondary outcome assessed will be patient symptoms. The Ocular Surface Disease Index survey will be administered before each treatment and patients will be asked to differentiate their symptoms between the two eyes, both before and after the intervention. The investigators hypothesize that mechanical expression of meibomian glands within the first 6 months of SJS/TEN onset will significantly improve ocular surface disease and symptoms in those patients.
