Reading Summary

The article I read was about the problem of dry eyes. New research has been done by Tom Millar, a professor at University of Western Sydney and he has found that there is a thin layer of protein keeping the tears together and stopping it from evaporating. Before this, it was thought to be lipids that was the thin layer protecting the tears. The new discovery will help create better eye drops that will keep the eye from becoming dry for a longer period of time.
