(99132-TD, 1 hr COPE-accredited CE)


In this episode, Dr. Bryce Heffington dives deep into Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD), the #1 cause of evaporative dry eye, and how to finally get it under control. You’ll learn how to spot, grade, and treat all three types of MGD: obstructive, hypo-secretory, and hyper-secretory.


From risk factors like age, hormones, rosacea, and too much screen time… to symptoms like burning, grittiness, and fluctuating vision… Dr. Heffington breaks down exactly what’s happening at the lid margin and why your patients are struggling.


We cover proven treatments, warm compresses, lid hygiene, prescription meds, thermal pulsation, and IPL, plus exciting future therapies like Nova 03, Azr Dash, and stem cell innovations. You’ll also hear why combining home care, prescriptions, and in-office procedures delivers the best long-term results.
