Answer:

When our tear film becomes unstable, symptoms of Dry Eye can occur. OUR TEAR FILM HAS THREE LAYERS. Our tear film is made up of three layers – an oil (lipid) layer, a water (aqueous) layer and a mucin layer. ... Its main purpose is to seal the tear film which helps reduce evaporation of our natural tears.
