function of the lids
skin on the outside, mucous membrane on the inside (conjunctiva)
what type of glands to eyelashes have?
sebaceous
what are the oily secretory glands for?
tear film
what is conjunctiva?
thin vascular membrane that covers inner surface of the eyelids and loops back over sclera

where is the lacrimal gland situated?
in the orbit laterally
what innervates the lacrimal gland?
facial nerve
where does the lacrimal gland open into?
conjunctival sac
what are the events of tears?
During each blink, eyelids spread tears evenly on the surface of cornea
Tears drain through punctae on the medial side of each eyelid
Drains into lacrimal sac which sits over the lacrimal bone
Then drains through nasolacrimal duct into the inferior meatus of the nasal cavity.
