The objective of this research was to determine the effect of oral minocycline on the meibomian gland nonpolar and free fatty acid lipids of chronic blepharitis patients. Patients--seborrheic blepharitis (SBBL), acne rosacea (AR) without ocular involvement, and acne rosacea with meibomianitis

[Normal and pathologic sebaceous function. Research in a shallow milieu?].
