LipiFlow vs basic warm compresses

Mean change from baseline in meibomian gland expression scores at 1 to 4 weeks (higher is favored) · people with dry eye

It is very uncertain whether lipiFlow changes mean change from baseline in meibomian gland expression scores at 1… compared with basic warm compresses (very low certainty).
