What effect does Zhongshan Ophthalmology Meibomian gland massage have?
Zhongshan Ophthalmology is a professional ophthalmic hospital in Guangzhou, which has developed many innovative technologies and treatments in the field of ophthalmology.

The following will elaborate on the effect of meibomian gland massage in Zhongshan Ophthalmology Department from the aspects of eyelid gland function, improving dry eye, relieving eye fatigue and preventing blepharitis.
Eyelid gland function
The meibomian gland is a group of glands located at the inner edge of the eyelid. The liquid it secretes is an important part of tears. The meibomian gland massage can stimulate the secretion function of the meibomian gland, promote the discharge of liquid, and thus achieve the effect of improving the eye wetness. Long term massage can also increase blood circulation, improve the metabolism and immunity of glands, enhance the nutrition supply of eye tissues, and contribute to eye health.
Through the professional guidance of Zhongshan Ophthalmology Department and the designated massage method, patients can have simple massage at home, usually about 10 to 15 minutes each time. Massage techniques include gentle rubbing, gentle rubbing and gentle pressing, and the specific strength and frequency will also be adjusted according to the specific situation of the patient.
Improve dry eye
Dry eye disease is a kind of eye disease caused by insufficient tears or decreased tear quality. Meibomian gland massage can stimulate the secretion of tears and the discharge function of glands, thereby improving dry eye symptoms. Research shows that meibomian gland massage can effectively increase the stability of the tear film layer, reduce the excessive dryness caused by evaporation, and help restore the normal physiological state of the eye surface.
The doctor of Zhongshan Ophthalmology Department will make a suitable massage plan according to the degree and symptoms of dry eye. Regular massage can improve the function of eyelid glands, significantly reduce dry eye symptoms and improve the quality of life of patients.
Relieve eye fatigue
Modern people are prone to eye fatigue due to long-term use of electronic equipment and high intensity eye movements. Meibomian gland massage can alleviate eye fatigue, promote eye blood circulation, and improve the oxygen and blood supply of eye tissues. In addition, meibomian gland massage can also help accelerate the absorption of eye nutrients, promote the metabolism of cells, and help the recovery of eye fatigue and eye health.
Meibomian gland massage can also promote the relaxation of the muscles around the eyes, reduce eye fatigue and eye tension. In the case of mild fatigue, patients can carry out simple massage on their own. In case of severe fatigue, the patient can have professional massage treatment in Zhongshan Ophthalmology Department, which can bring better results through the skills of professional technicians.
Prevention of blepharitis
Meibomian gland massage is also an effective means to prevent blepharitis. Blepharitis is a common eye disease, which easily occurs in the case of abnormal secretion of meibomian gland. Regular massage can promote the normal secretion of meibomian gland and reduce inflammation. In addition, meibomian gland massage can also remove the secretion blocked in the gland duct, prevent infection, and help the eyelid gland to better complete its own cleaning function.
To sum up, the meibomian gland massage of Zhongshan Ophthalmology Department can increase the wetness of tears and improve dry eye symptoms by stimulating the secretion and excretion of meibomian glands.
