A Look Through Lash Extensions
The image shows the condition of the meibomian glands in an eyelid with natural lashes (left) and with lash extensions (right).
Left side – meibomian glands are normal: clear, uniform, and full-length.
Right side – visible changes: shortening, dropout, and distortion of the glands, which may indicate a negative impact of lash extensions on meibomian gland function.
