The eyes of mammals are covered by a multi-layer film that helps them do what they're supposed to do. Close to the cornea, the transparent front part of the eye, is a layer of mucin. Mucin is made up of protein that scientists think helps clear debris and pathogens from the eye. On top of that is the aqueous layer, which makes up 90% of your eye's coating. This is a water-based tear solution, only about as thick as a single strand of spider silk, which serves many functions including keeping our eyes hydrated and protects against infection. The last outer layer is called the lipid layer. It is made of an oily substance called Maibaum, a key part of which are fatty acids.
