| LTD = lipid tear deficiency; MGD = meibomian gland disease, SS = Sjögren syndrome, ‘‘+’’ = presence of disease, ‘‘−’’ = absence of disease; OSDI = Ocular Surface Disease Index; score was determined out of a total of 100; SSDE = Sjögren syndrome dry eye, ‘‘+’’ = Schirmer <10 mm, ‘‘−’’ = Schirmer ≧10 mm; TBUT = tear break-up time, ‘‘+’’ = TBUT <10 sec, whereas ‘‘−’’ = TBUT ≥10 sec. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
