This research study evaluates a prescription eye drop called Vevye® (cyclosporine 0.1%) for adults who have meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), a common eye condition that can cause dry, irritated, or burning eyes. If you join the study, after a short "run-in" period using artificial tears, you will receive Vevye twice a day for about 24 weeks (approximately six months). During that time you will attend several clinic visits where your eye symptoms, lid health, tear film, and meibomian gland function will be assessed. The goal is to learn whether Vevye improves symptoms (like eye dryness or irritation) and signs (such as changes on the eye's surface or lid margins) of MGD. You will also be monitored for safety and comfort of the eye drop. The information obtained from this study may help determine whether this treatment is beneficial for people with this condition and contribute to future care options. Participation is voluntary and you may stop at any time.
