GLÀND OF THE LIDS

Here’s a list of glands associated with the eyelids:

  1. Meibomian glands: Produce meibum, an oily substance that helps lubricate the eyes and prevents excessive evaporation of tears.
  2. Glands of Zeis: Sebaceous glands associated with the eyelashes, producing sebum that helps to keep the eyelashes and surrounding skin healthy.
  3. Glands of Moll: Sweat glands located near the eyelashes, contributing to the secretion of sweat around the eye area.

These glands play important roles in maintaining the health and function of the ocular surface and eyelids. Dysfunction or blockage of these glands can lead to various eye conditions.
