Meibomian gland disease, telangiectasia, and rhinophyma are classic findings associated with which condition?

• A. Ocular Rosacea
• B. Acne rosacea
• C. Scleroderma
• D. Blepharitis

Answer: (A)

These findings point to rosacea. Meibomian gland dysfunction and lid-margin telangiectasia are common eyelid signs in rosacea, while rhinophyma is the classic bulbous nasal change seen with facial (acne) rosacea. When the eye is involved, this spectrum is referred to as ocular rosacea, which explains why this option is the best fit for a question that pairs eyelid signs with rhinophyma. Blepharitis and scleroderma can have eyelid involvement or telangiectasia, but rhinophyma is characteristic of rosacea, not those conditions, and acne rosacea would also be part of the rosacea spectrum but the ocular involvement makes ocular rosacea the most precise match here.
