Overview

There are no other imaging findings associated with conjunctivitis. However, dynamic meibomian imaging (DMI) can be used to obtain a distinct picture of the entire everted inferior tarsal plate in a patient with keratoconjunctivitis sicca (dry eye syndrome).^[1]^[2]

Kertoconjunctivitis Sicca

Dynamic Meibomian Imaging

Dynamic meibomian imaging (DMI) provides a distinct picture of the entire everted inferior tarsal plate, allowing both the clinician and the patient to assess the extent of meibomian gland dysfunction.^[1]^[2]
