During the past several decades, a significant international
research effort has been directed towards understanding the
composition and regulation of the preocular tear film. This effort
has been motivated by the recognition that the tear film plays a
critical role in maintaining corneal and conjunctival integrity,
protecting against microbial challenge and preserving visual
acuity. In addition, research has been stimulated by the knowledge
that alteration or deficiency of the tear film, which occurs in
numerous individuals throughout the world, may lead to desiccation
of the ocular surface, ulceration and perforation of the cornea, an
increased incidence of infectious disease, and potentionally
pronounced visual disability and blindness.
