Abstract. Background:As conventional therapeutic method, meibomian gland dysfunction is treated by compression of the lesion with forceps. This method may be painful and may take too much time. Purpose:To report our newly designed device to treat meibomian gland dysfunction. Method:An aspirator was made by attaching the outside portion of a 1ml injection syringe to the tip of an aspirator used for aesthetic purposes. This aspirator was used to treat 40 eyes of 20 patients with meibomian infrarction. Results:Treatment with the newly designed aspirator was generally painless. Light or moderate cases could be treated by applying the aspirator to the lid margin. More advanced cases were additionally treated by thermotherapy. Conclusion:Our newly designed aspirator is simple, is painless, and can be applied for short duration. It is therefore useful in the treatment of meibomian gland infarction.
