Meibography

Advanced Diagnostic Tool

Meibography for Dry Eye Disease

At Refine Optometry, we utilize meibography, a cutting-edge diagnostic technology that provides detailed imaging of your meibomian glands, which are responsible for producing the oil layer in your tear film. These glands play a crucial role in preventing tear evaporation, making their function key to managing dry eye disease.

By using meibography, we can visualize the structure and functionality of your glands to better understand the root cause of your dry eye symptoms. With the information gathered through meibography, we personalize a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. Early detection of meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) through this non-invasive imaging technique allows us to provide targeted treatments, helping you achieve relief and prevent further complications.

What to Expect During a Meibography Exam

The procedure is quick, non-invasive, and painless, using a specialized camera to capture images of your meibomian glands. This gives your eye doctor the insights needed to develop an individualized treatment plan for effective and lasting relief.
