Abstract
MGD prevalence in this study was lower than the rates reported in other studies on Asian populations. Besides HDL level, MGD is associated with another ocular surface disorder, namely pinguecula, as well as certain systemic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes mellitus. These associations should be taken into consideration when diagnosing MGD.
