title: [Lacrimal physiology (author's transl)].
abstract: The althors want to recall the importance of the quality of the lacrymal film. The role of the accessory lacrymal glands is essential. The excretory system is not a passive emunctory but an active pumping system, the walls of the passages absorb most of the lacrymal fluid. Easy tests enable to probe the lacrymal system.
