Abstract

In a large sample population, the prevalence of <i>Demodex brevis</i> and <i>Demodex folliculorum</i> was higher in the CD group than in healthy volunteers. In addition, the severity of eyelid congestion might be exacerbated by the number of <i>Demodex</i> spp., which may therefore provide a good clinical reference and objective guide.
