What’s wrong with blepharospasm atrophy?

The meibomian gland is a sebaceous gland that secretes oil to lubricate the surface of the eye, and patients with meibomian gland atrophy usually experience discomfort such as dry, painful eyes. Blepharosphenoid atrophy can be caused by ocular inflammation, improper eye use, external irritation, heredity, or it can be related to congenital dysplasia. The main function of the levator glands is to secrete oil to form an inner fat layer that covers the surface of the tears, which slows down the evaporation of the tears and keeps them on the surface of the eye, so the levator glands play an important role in moisturizing the eye and maintaining the stability of the tear film. Blepharosphenoid atrophy is usually associated with inflammation of the eye, overuse of the eye or lack of attention to eye hygiene, external stimuli, heredity and other factors. Patients with blepharospasm atrophy can have localized hot compresses and eye massages under the guidance of a doctor to relieve discomfort and improve their condition. Patients should pay attention to develop good eye habits, avoid frequent use of cell phones and computers, avoid frequent late nights, pay attention to eye cleaning, but also can use blepharoplasty physiotherapy, intense pulsed light and other methods of treatment. It is recommended that patients with blepharospasmal atrophy consult a doctor in time to assess their condition and follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment.
