INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to evaluate tear meniscus parameters in meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) using optical coherence tomography and ImageJ software.
METHODS: We enrolled 66 eyes of 66 participants and measured tear meniscus parameters, including height, depth, turbidity, and percentage area occupied by particles (PAOP) in the meniscus in the MGD and control groups.
RESULTS: Tear meniscus turbidity and PAOP were significantly higher in the MGD group, but tear meniscus height (TMH) and depth (TMD) did not differ significantly between groups. Tear meniscus turbidity and PAOP were positively correlated with each other and ocular surface parameters, including OSDI and ocular surface staining scores.
CONCLUSION: Tear meniscus turbidity and PAOP were higher in the MGD group than in the control group; therefore, they can be used as significant non-invasive parameters in the prediction of MGD. TMH and TMD did not differ significantly between groups.
