Metagenomic Profiling of Ocular Surface Microbiome Changes in Meibomian Gland Dysfunction

2020-04-21

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background</bold>: Ocular surface microbiome changes can affect meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) development, which in turn may increase the risk of tissue infection. To delineate what these changes are, we used shot-gun metagenomic analysis to determine if there are differences between the microbial communities in ocular sites surrounding the meibomian gland in healthy and patie...
