Abstract | Aim: To observe ocular surface changes after phacovitrectomy in patients with mild to moderate meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD)-type dry eye and track clinical treatment response using a Keratograph 5M and a LipiView interferometer. Methods: Forty cases were randomized into control group A and treatment group B; the latter received meibomian gland treatment 3d before phacovitrectomy and sodium hyaluronate before and after surgery. The average non-invasive tear film break-up time (NITBUTav), first non-invasive tear film break-up time (NITBUTf), non-invasive measured tear meniscus height (NTMH), meibomian gland loss (MGL), lipid layer thickness (LLT) and partial blink rate (PBR) were measured preoperatively and 1wk, 1 and 3mo postoperatively. Results: The NITBUTav values of group A at 1wk (4.38±0.47), 1mo (6.76±0.70), and 3mo (7.25±0.68) were significantly lower than those of group B (7.45±0.78, 10.46±0.97, and 11.31±0.89; Conclusion: Mild to moderate MGD dry eye worsens in the short term after phacovitrectomy. Preoperative cleaning, hot compresses, and meibomian gland massage as well as preoperative and postoperative sodium hyaluronate promote the rapid recovery of tear film stability. |
