Research Abstract |
Chronic graft-versus-host(cGVHD) disease is one of the cause of the severe dry eye. We evaluated the morphological changes of the meibomian glands(MGs) using non-contact infrared meibography, confocal microscopy and fluorescein/Rose-bengal staining in dry eye patients with cGVHD.
