Abstract
Incomplete blinking was associated with a two-fold increased risk of dry eye disease. The greater levels of meibomian gland dropout, as well as poorer expressed meibum quality and tear film lipid layer thickness, observed would suggest that incomplete blinking may predispose towards the development of evaporative dry eye.
