About This File
This 3D model of lacrimal gland anatomy provides a highly detailed and anatomically accurate representation of the tear-producing gland located in the upper outer region of the eye. It illustrates the gland’s structure, including its lobes and ducts, and its role in secreting tears to lubricate and protect the eye’s surface.
The model also highlights its connection to the lacrimal drainage system, including the lacrimal puncta, canaliculi, lacrimal sac, and nasolacrimal duct, demonstrating the pathway of tear flow.
Designed for educational and clinical purposes, this model is an invaluable tool for studying ocular anatomy, understanding the physiology of tear production, and exploring disorders such as dry eye syndrome, dacryoadenitis, and blockages in the tear drainage system.
Ideal for medical professionals, educators, and students, it supports teaching, training, and patient education by providing a hands-on visualization of the lacrimal system’s structure and function.
