title: [A new finding concerning the secretory behavior of the lacrimal gland].
abstract: Volume produced and concentrations are the most important parameters in the investigation of lacrimal fluid. Information about the secretory behavior of the lacrimal gland can only be obtained by collecting the lacrimal fluid at its point of origin. When the lacrimal fluids of locally anesthetized and untreated eyes are compared, correlating albumin concentrations and the time elapsing until a certain volume is obtained, it appears that equal quantities of such contents are produced during equal periods of time.
