Insomnia is a sleep disorder that prevents sleep for long periods of time, and may even prevent a person from sleep completely. Insomnia can be caused by a number of reasons, such as diet, stress, drugs or alcohol and even some emotions such as fear or dread.

The tear has three different fractions, which are produced in different glands: The lacrimal glands secrete the aqueous fraction, which constitutes 99% of the total tear. The conjunctiva, which lines the white of the eye and the posterior wall of the eyelids, is composed of cells that produce mucin Calciform, which constitutes only 0.5% of total tear. And in his eyelids have meibomian thickness (which occur when they are sick and styes chalazia) that produce fat in minute quantities. Each of these components are arranged as follows:
I. Mucin extends over the surface of the cornea, being the most posterior layer of the tear.
II. The aqueous tear mucin is placed on forming the middle layer.
III. The tear fat spreads as a thin film on the water, forming the outer layer.
