Photo: Meibomian glands of the eyelids

meibomianpores.jpg
Here is a photograph of the eye. If you examine the lower eyelid, you can see small light-colored poors along the margin. These are the orifices to the meibomian glands that produce oils for the tear film.

You can get a better idea of how this looks in our blepharitis video.
