摘要：
在人类中，泪腺位于额骨上方的外眼眶区的凹槽内。作为眼表面的重要组成部分，该腺通过结缔组织与眶骨骨膜固定在一起。泪腺通过外腱膜，将腺体分为较大的眼眶腺和较小的眼睑腺。泪腺是泪膜的主要组成成分，它们分泌电解质、蛋白质和水来滋养和保护眼表面。此外，从临床角度来看，泪腺与各种炎症反应和免疫因子有关，也是肿瘤易发区。泪腺形态或分泌功能的改变会影响泪膜的稳定性和泪液质量。已经开发并应用了多种技术设备来研究泪腺。本文系统地回顾了泪腺的临床检查，旨在为泪腺相关疾病的诊断提供个体化的策略。版权所有 © 2023 林、张、施、吴和欧。
In humans, the lacrimal gland is located in the socket of the frontal bone above the outer orbital area. As an essential part of the eye surface, the gland is fixed to the orbital periosteum by connective tissue. The lacrimal gland passes through the outer tendon membrane, which divides the gland into larger orbital and minor eyelid glands. The lacrimal glands are the main contributors to tear film. They secrete electrolytes, proteins, and water to help nourish and protect the eye's surface. Furthermore, clinically, lacrimal glands are associated with a variety of inflammatory reactions and immune factors and are also vulnerable sites for tumors. Changes in tear gland morphology or secretory function affect tear film stability and tear secretion quality. Various technological devices have been developed and applied to lacrimal glands. This article systematically reviewed the clinical examination of the lacrimal gland to help inform personalized strategies for the diagnosis of lacrimal gland-related diseases.Copyright © 2023 Lin, Zhang, Shi, Wu and Ou.
