    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Congenital alacrima, the absence of tears, is rare. This study reviews seven cases, highlighting its potential link to sicca syndrome and recommending it as a diagnosis for irritable eyes in children.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Genetics

    Background:

    • Congenital alacrima, a rare condition characterized by the absence of tear production, presents diagnostic challenges in pediatric eye care.
    • Early identification is crucial due to potential later development of sicca syndrome.
