BEFORE AFTER

Meibography is a specialized imaging diagnostic used to evaluate the meibomian glands — the tiny oil-producing glands along the eyelid margin that are critical to healthy tear film and dry eye prevention.

This diagnostic is specifically used to support dry eye treatment planning — it is not a treatment itself.

Using infrared imaging, Meibography allows your provider to:

  • Visualize the structure and health of meibomian glands
  • Identify gland dropout or damage
  • Detect meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) early
  • Determine the underlying cause of dry eye symptoms

What to Expect

What to Expect During This Treatment

Meibography is conducted as part of a dry eye consultation — not as a standalone visit.

02

A specialized infrared camera captures images of the inner eyelid to assess gland structure.

03

The process is quick, non-invasive, and completely comfortable — no drops, no contact, no discomfort.

04

Results are used to recommend the most appropriate dry eye treatment, such as the Dry Eyes Spa (Opus RF or IPL).

05

Alma IQ helps remove the guesswork — your treatment recommendations are based on what your skin actually needs.
