Role of MGD in the Dry Eye Vicious Cycle

Dear Dr. Renukaprasad A R,
Are you aware of the purpose and role of the double vicious circle in MGD-related DED?
MGD stands as the leading cause of DED. The pathogenesis of both MGD and DED is described as a "vicious circle," where the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of these conditions interact, perpetuating each other's effects. MGD-associated tear film instability provides an entry point into the DED vicious circle, resulting in hyperosmolarity and inflammation as the causes and consequences of DED.
Check out this infographic highlighting the relationship between MGD and DED and targeted therapies to treat MGD-related DED!
