Tear cholesterol levels in blepharitis.

Abstract:

:The tear levels of cholesterol of 17 patients with chronic blepharitis and 17 healthy subjects were determined by the photometric method. The mean cholesterol level of the patients was determined to be 56.1 +/- 8.9 (SEM) mg/dl. No statistically significant difference between the tear cholesterol levels of the two groups could be detected.
