Values are presented as mean ± standard deviation or number (%). Five patients whose patterns of tear lipid layer graph could not be evaluated were excluded. The number of patients excluded in each group as follows: MGD = 3, Combine = 2.
OSDI = Ocular Surface Disease Index; TFBUT = tear film breakup time; LLT = lipid layer thickness.

MGD (n = 38) | 11 (28.9) | 5 (13.2) | 17 (44.7) | 5 (13.2) |

ADDE (n = 13) | 5 (38.5) | 2 (15.4) | 3 (23.1) | 3 (23.1) |
Values are presented as number (%). Five patients whose patterns of tear lipid layer graph could not be evaluated were excluded. The number of patients excluded in each group as follows: MGD grade 0 = 0, MGD grade 1 = 1, MGD grade 2 = 0, MGD grade 3 = 2, MGD grade 4 = 2.
MGD = Meibomian gland dysfunction.
Values are presented as number (%). Five patients whose patterns of tear lipid layer graph could not be evaluated were excluded. The number of patients excluded in each group as follows: Upper lid dropout 0 = 0, Upper lid dropout 1 = 1, Upper lid dropout 2 = 3, Upper lid dropout 3 = 1; Lower lid dropout 0 = 0, Lower lid drop out 1 = 3, Lower lid dropout 2 = 1, Lower lid dropout 3= 1.
