Review: The Lacrimal Gland and Its Role in Dry Eye
The human tear film is a 3‐layered coating of the surface of the eye and a loss, or reduction, in any layer of this film may result in a syndrome of blurry vision and burning pain of the eyes known as dry eye. The lacrimal gland and accessory glands provide multiple components to the tear film, most notably the aqueous.

Treatment for Retinopathy of Prematurity in an Infant with Adenoviral Conjunctivitis
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) has been a major problematic disorder during childhood. Laser photocoagulation (LPC) has been proven to be effective in most of the ROP cases. Adenoviral conjunctivitis (AVC) is responsible for epidemics among adult and pediatric population. It has also been reported to be a cause of outbreaks in neonatal intensive care

Simple and Cost‐Effective Restriction Endonuclease Analysis of Human Adenoviruses
Restriction endonuclease analyses (REAs) constitute the only inexpensive molecular approach capable of typing and characterizing human adenovirus (HAdV) strains based on the entire genome. However, the application of this method is limited by the need for time‐consuming and labor‐intensive procedures. We herein developed a simple and cost‐effective REA
