AI overview

Tears are a clear fluid produced by glands in the eyes of all land mammals, made up of water, electrolytes, proteins, lipids, and mucins that coat the eye's surface. They come in four different types—basal, closed eye, emotional, and reflex—each with distinct compositions, and their production can increase dramatically in response to irritation.
