Your tears are a delicate balance of three components; oil, water, and mucos. Each of these components serves their own important function and is produced by it's respective set of glands. In problem with any of these can cause dry eye disease:
Evaporative dry eye: This is the most common form of dry eye and is due to a tear imbalance causes your tear film to be uneven over your eye, thus leading to rapid evaporation of tears between blinks.
Aqueous dry eye: This form is due to lack of tear production. Usually, it is the watery tear layer that is underproduced.
