PURPOSE: To examine clinical findings on meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) in patients with unilateral cranial nerve VII (CN VII) palsy.
METHODS: This prospective observational study included 35 patients with unilateral CN VII palsy. The following features were compared between the affected and the unaffected sides: incidence of eyelid abnormalities (irregular eyelid margin, vascular engorgement, and plugged meibomian gland orifices), Marx line score, meibom expression score, area and density scores for corneal fluorescein staining, Schirmer test I (without topical anesthesia), and tear break-up time.
RESULTS: The affected side demonstrated significantly higher incidences of vascular engorgement (p = 0.004) and plugged meibomian gland orifices (p < 0.001) than the unaffected side. The incidence of an irregular eyelid margin was similar for both sides (p = 0.168). The scores for the Marx line (p < 0.001), meibom expression (p < 0.001), area (p = 0.034), and density (p = 0.026) were significantly higher for the affected side than for the unaffected side. The affected side showed a significantly higher Schirmer value than the unaffected side (p = 0.030). Tear break-up time was significantly shorter on the affected side than on the unaffected side (p = 0.023).
CONCLUSIONS: MGD was more markedly demonstrated on the affected side in patients with unilateral CN VII palsy.
