Concentration dependent cholesteryl-ester and wax-ester structural relationships and meibomian gland dysfunction
Background: With dry eye, the ratio of cholesteryl ester (CE) to wax ester (WE) decreases substantially in meibum, but the functional and structural consequences of this change are speculative. The aim of this study is to confirm this finding and to bridge this gap in knowledge by investigating the...
