Severe Meibomian Gland Disease.
This 14 year old girl is on some type of screen 7-8 hrs per day (which includes hours at school) but that may not be the only thing going on.
We are waiting for labs to return.
In the meantime, we are encouraging her to avoid screen time and blink frequently when she has to be on screens.

We will likely be giving out doctors notes to such students so they can be given books instead of screens.
