Abstract
Purpose: To assess the safety and efficacy of the dry eye intelligent therapeutic device in rabbits with meibomian gland dysfunction.
Methods: The meibomian gland dysfunction-afflicted rabbits were subjected to treatment using the dry eye intelligent therapeutic device. Various parameters, including eyelid margin, meibomian gland opening, redness, meibomian gland area, keratoconjunctival fluorescence staining, and intraocular pressure, were examined and analyzed using an ocular surface comprehensive examination instrument, slit lamp, and tonometer at corresponding times points. Hematoxylin and eosin staining was performed to examine the mucosal epithelium and meibomian gland.
Results: In this study, eyelid margin congestion and meibomian gland opening obstruction were significantly improved after 3 weeks and 4 weeks of treatment, respectively (p < .01, p < .05). The treatment group showed a significant increase in tear meniscus height after 2 weeks, 3 weeks and 4 weeks of treatment (p < .001, p < .01, p < .05). No significant changes were noted in meibomian gland area, redness, intraocular pressure, and keratoconjunctival fluorescence staining of rabbits before and after treatment. Hematoxylin and eosin staining revealed a complete structure of mucosal epithelium and meibomian gland in the treatment group and that the expansion of the blocked meibomian gland duct was reduced.
Conclusion: The utilization of the dry eye intelligent therapeutic device in treating meibomian gland dysfunction-afflicted rabbits exhibits potential promising safety, efficacy, and overall benefits, thereby offering a novel alternative for managing meibomian gland dysfunction patients in clinical settings.

期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
