A member asked:

I use a gel compress on my eyelid and then use a q-tip to push the clogged oil out of the meibomian gland but i dont see the oil secreting?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Too small to see: It sound as if you had good advice about eyelid treatment for meibomian gland dysfunction. The normal oil is a mixture of oil and saline, is transparent, and quickly spreads over the lash and surrounding skin. You cannot see it with the naked eye - and if you do see it, then that is abnormal.
