Detailed explanation-2: -Stimulation of the plentiful afferent, sensory corneal and conjunctival nerves activates the efferent nerves to the lacrimal gland stimulating secretion of lacrimal gland electrolytes, water, and proteins that exit the gland as lacrimal gland fluid via the excretory ducts onto the surface of the eye.
