Preventative Eye Care

Severe and causing the lids to not adhere properly. This what happens when you don’t blink enough to squeeze all the lubricant out of your meibomian glands. Screentime also causes reduced and incomplete blinking so this might be where we are all headed if we don’t remind ourselves to blink more… also we should be teaching people to clean their lids morning and night like we brush our teeth as kids to prevent our meibomian glands from clogging and degenerating and looking like this. Because once your glands degenerate it’s too late and you can’t get them back and you end up with constant progressive dry eye where you can treat the symptoms but never the underlying cause.
