Primary Outcomes (1)
Primary Efficacy for MGD: Change From Baseline to Month 3 in Meibomian Gland Secretion Score (MGS)
The MGS can range from 0 (highly abnormal) to 45 (Normal). Meibomian gland assessment was completed using a handheld instrument, Meibomian Gland Evaluator, along the eyelid margin to ensure measurement consistency. A total of 15 glands were evaluated along the lower eyelid margin, consisting of 5 glands located in each of the temporal, central and nasal regions. For each of the 15 glands, expressed secretion characteristics were graded on a 0-3 scale using the published methods from Lane and Colleagues (2012) Lane SS, DuBiner HB, Epstein RJ, et al. A new system, the LipiFlow, for the treatment of meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). Cornea. 2012; 31(4): 396-404.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Evidence of meibomian gland obstruction (based on a meibomian gland secretion (MGS) score of ≤12 for 15 glands of the lower lid) in both eyes at the baseline visit
- Reported dry eye signs and symptoms within the past 3 months:
- Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) score ≥ 13; TBUT \< 10 seconds in both eyes
You may not qualify if:
- Uncontrolled ocular disease (except for MGD) or uncontrolled systemic disease
- Patient has glaucoma or ocular hypertension as demonstrated by an intraocular pressure (IOP) in either eye at screening of ≥24 mm Hg determined by Goldman applanation tonometry or has planned insertion/removal of glaucoma filtration shunts/devices during the study
- Corneal abnormality or disorder that impacts normal spreading of the tear film (keratoconus, pterygia, scarring) or corneal integrity
- Recent (within the past 3 months of the baseline visit) ocular surgery, trauma, herpes, or recurrent inflammation
- Contact lens use anticipated during the study
