TearCare treatment for stable corneal measurements before cataract surgery
This study tests whether TearCare therapy followed by gland expression helps stabilize the tear film so pre-surgery measurements for cataract planning are more reliable for people with dry eye and meibomian gland dysfunction.
-
Tear protein changes before and after low-level light therapy for dry eye and meibomian gland dysfunction
This research will test whether low-level light therapy changes proteins in tears and helps people with dry eye and meibomian gland problems.
-
Low-level red light therapy and eyelid temperature across different skin tones
This will see if low-level red light therapy changes eyelid temperature in adults with dry eye and meibomian gland dysfunction who have lighter versus darker skin.
