Abstract—
Purpose: To evaluate the morphological changes of the Meibomian glands in patients with evaporative “dry eye” compared to normal subjects by in vivo laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM). To correlate these changes to the clinical observations and tear functions.
Methods: The study was based on trans-tarsal images of 30 normal and 30 diseased lids (patients with subjective complaints and objective symptoms of evaporative “dry eye”). Each participant was examined by in vivo LSCM (HRT3 Rostock corneal module). The results were compared to histological findings of normal or pathologically changed Meibomian glands.
Results: Patients with evaporative “dry eye” presented with destructive changes of the Meibomian glands as follows: occlusion of the lumen, impaired morphology of the acines, lack of normal structure and infiltration with inflammatory cells. Reported ocular surface and tear function abnormalities were correlated to the Meibomian glands dysfunction (MGD). In all cases the lid hygiene and anti-inflammatory treatment demonstrated tendency to restoration of the structure.
Cоnclusion: In vivo LSCM can effectively demonstrate the morphological changes of the Meibomian glands in patients with evaporative dry eye symptoms. This noninvasive technology is useful as a supplementary diagnostic tool for in vivo assessment of the histopathology of many ocular surface disorders and monitoring of the therapeutic effect in patients with MGD. Glandular acinar density and acinar unit diameter seemed to be promising new parameters of Meibomian glands in vivo confocal microscopy. The examination has the potential to change the evaporative dry eye treatment approach

CRISPR-Cas9, a revolutionary gene-editing tool, holds immense potential to reshape medicine, agriculture, and our understanding of life. But like any powerful tool, it comes with ethical considerations.
Unveiling CRISPR: This naturally occurring bacterial defense system (crRNA & Cas9 protein) fights viruses. Scientists repurposed it for precise gene editing (correction, deletion, insertion) by targeting specific DNA sequences.
The Promise: CRISPR offers exciting possibilities:
Gene Therapy: Correcting genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis.
Agriculture: Engineering crops resistant to pests and harsh environments.
Research: Studying gene function to unlock new knowledge.
The Peril: Ethical concerns demand attention:
Off-target Effects: Unintended DNA edits can have unforeseen consequences.
Eugenics: Misusing CRISPR for designer babies raises social and ethical questions.
Equity: High costs could limit access to this potentially life-saving technology.
The Path Forward: Responsible development is crucial:
International Collaboration: Clear guidelines are needed for research and human trials.
Public Education: Open discussions ensure informed decisions about CRISPR.
Prioritize Safety and Ethics: Safety and ethical principles must be paramount.
CRISPR offers a powerful tool for a better future, but responsible development and addressing ethical concerns are essential. By prioritizing safety, fostering open dialogue, and ensuring equitable access, we can harness CRISPR's power for the benefit of all. (2998 characters)

2. HOW ARE DRY EYES DIAGNOSED ?
Dry eyes can be diagnosed through a comprehensive eye
examination.
Testing, with emphasis on the evaluation of the quantity and
quality of tears produced by the eyes, may include:
• Patient history, medications or environmental factors
• External examination of the eye, including lid structure and
blink dynamics.
3. • Measurement of the quantity and quality of tears for any
abnormalities.
• Special dyes may be put in the eyes to better observe tear
flow and to highlight any changes to the outer surface of the
eye caused by insufficient tears.
4.
5. Dry eye disease was recently redefined as a
“multifactorial disease of the ocular surface characterized by a
loss of homeostasis of the tear film, and
accompanied by ocular symptoms, in which tear film instability
and hyperosmolarity, ocular surface inflammation and damage,
and neurosensory abnormalities play etiological roles.” (DEWS
II)
6. Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) represents the leading
cause of evaporative dry eye, the most common subtype of
eye.
MGD is characterized by hyperkeratinization of the meibomian
gland ductal epithelium, leading to obstruction and plugging of
the gland orifice.
7.
8. Stasis of meibum inside the gland
promotes proliferation of bacteria
producing lipases and esterases
increase the viscosity and
melting temperature of the meibum
9. The accurate diagnosis and classification of dry eye are
complicated by the heterogeneous nature of the disease and the
variability of signs and symptoms.
Various diagnostic assessments have been proposed to
qualitatively and quantitatively characterize the entire ocular
surface system.
However, to date, no universally accepted diagnostic workup for
the diagnosis of MGD has been established.
10. Several tests used routinely in daily practice require direct
contact with the eye and/or the use of eye drops.
The resulting alteration of the tear film volume and composition
may not only influence the measured variable itself but also have
disruptive effects on the results of subsequent tests.
11. Measurements obtained using traditional tests are often affected
by low values of repeatability and reproducibility.
Recently, new automated noninvasive quantitative tests have
been developed to overcome these drawbacks
12. Interferometry is a technique that studies the surface reflection
pattern and dynamics of the lipid layer of the tear film, thus
allowing the measurement of the tear film stability and the
thickness of the lipid layer.
Meibography allows in vivo observation of the Meibomian
gland morphology; the gland structural changes may be
with different scoring systems.
13. In addition, new digital software allows automated calculation of
the total meibomian gland area in the lower and upper eyelids.
Tear film osmolarity has been reported as the single best
metric to diagnose and grade severity of dry eye.
14. RECENT DIAGNOSTIC DEVICES

can be accessed anywhere in the world
- the design eliminates licensing costs associated with
multiple viewing stations and has the ability to pull up
images in multiple clinic locations
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sQfaHuQVf4
25. InflammaDry (Quidel)
- First and only, in-office immunoassay test that detects
elevated levels of MMP-9
- Accurate results: 85% sensitivity and 94% specificity
- Samples taken the inside lining of the lower eyelid, the
palpebral conjunctiva
- Results in 10 minutes
27. - Direct Sampling Micro-Filtration technology, based on
the principle of lateral flow immunoassay.
MMP-9, if present in the tear sample, is captured between
MMP-9 specific mouse monoclonal and goat polyclonal
antibodies at concentrations ≥ 40 ng/ml. This antigen-
antibody complex is captured by NeutrAvidin immobilized as
the test line.
28. - The InflammaDry test includes two foil pouches, containing
the following materials, and one buffer vial.
29. The sample collector (A) is a separately packaged sterile
component that can easily be assembled onto the test cassette
(B). Additionally, the test cassette (B) guarantees correct sample
transfer onto the lateral flow assay strip.
Do not touch the sterile sampling fleece (C) prior to
collecting the patient sample.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3geY7V8JDzc
30. - The buffer vial contains a buffered salt solution
containing:
200 mM Tris
10% Fish 81 (sea block)
0.8% Tergitol
100 mM NaCl
0.1% Sodium Azide
0.0126% Gentamycin
pH 9.5 ± 0.05
31.
32. • Limitations
- MMP-9 is a nonspecific indicator for the presence of
inflammation.
- Patients with severe aqueous deficient dry eye, who
produce a sample volume of less than 6 μl, may yield a
false negative result.
- InflammaDry should not be used within 20 minutes of
performing a Schirmer tear test, as this may stimulate
degranulation of MMP-9 and cause a false positive result.
33. - A recent history of ocular surgery or infection, allergic
conjunctivitis, or other ocular surface diseases
- Patients with a history of contact lens use or recent ocular
surgery were not studied; no data supports any claims for
safety and efficacy in these populations.
- Certain medications such as systemic
immunomodulators, topical or oral steroids, cyclosporine,
tetracycline, and topical azithromycin, are known to inhibit
metalloproteinase activity.
34. - Running the test in an environment with a temperature of
45˚C or above, and humidity of 60% or above, may increase
sensitivity and cause a false positive result.
- InflammaDry should not be performed in conditions such
as Stevens Johnson Syndrome or other cicatricial conditions.

pen, allow measurement of tear osmolarity by electrical
impedence
- The composition and concentration of ions in tear fluid
affects its electrical conductivity, which gives a measurement
of tear film osmolarity
- Test takes 1-2 minutes
