● Features
The three-layer structure of tears that retains moisture
Tears are composed of three layers: the oil layer, the aqueous layer, and the mucin layer. The oil layer prevents tear evaporation, the aqueous layer contains abundant oxygen and nutrients, and the mucin layer helps keep tears on the surface of the eye. Each tear layer plays its role to maintain moisture on the eye’s surface.
When tears are insufficient…
If the balance of the three tear layers is disrupted, dry spots (areas lacking tears) form. This exposes the corneal surface, causing the eyes to dry out and become more susceptible to strain. As a result, various uncomfortable symptoms such as fatigue, irritation (pain, sensitivity to light), heavy eyes, and eye discharge may occur.
