Tear film thickness variations and the role of the tear meniscus

A mathematical model is developed to investigate the two-dimensional variations in the thickness of tear fluid deposited on the eye surface during a blink. Such variations can become greatly enhanced as the tears evaporate during the interblink period. The four mechanisms considered are: i) the depo...
