Fletus est lacrimas fundere (aut ortus lacrimarum in oculis), statui animi, dolori, corporeaeve oculorum irritationi respondens. Inter animi motús qui fletum stimulare possunt numerantur felicitas, gaudium, ira, tristitia. Actio flendi definitur "multiplex res secretomotorica cuius proprietas est lacrimas fundere ex apparatu lacrimali sine irritatione structurarum oculorum,"^[1] potius levationem praebens quae coniunctivitem prohibet.^[2] Consociatum vocabulum medicum est lacrimatio, quae etiam lacrimas fundendas non animi motus causa attingit. Varia flendi genera agnoscuntur.^[3]

Coniunctio neuronalis inter glandulam lacrimalem (ductum nasolacrimalem) et regiones cerebri humani cum animi motu implicatas affirmata est. Investigatores scientifici disputant num homines sint sola animalia quae lacrimas fundant, statui animi motús respondentes.^[4]^[5] Carolus Darwin in The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals dixit custodes elephanti Indicorum in Vivario Londiniensi ei dixisse eorum curas lacrimas maeroris aliquando fundere.

Lacrimis animi motibus effectibus sunt compositio chemica quae ab aliis lacrimarum generibus discrepat, summas continentes insigniter maiores hormontium prolactini, hormontis adrenocorticotropici, et Leu-enkaphalini,^[6] atque elementorum kalii et mangani.^[4]

Systema lacrimale

Sunt tria lacrimarum genera: lacrimae basales, lacrimae reflexivae, lacrimae psychicae. Lacrimae basales ab 1 ad 2 microlitra per minutum effunduntur, et oculis unguendis corneisque levandis prosunt. Lacrimae reflexivae sunt lacrimae quae irritationi oculari respondent, ut cum coquus cepas minutatim concidat. Lacrimae psychicae in systemate lacrimali generantur et sunt lacrimae animi motús causá expulsae.^[7]

Systema lacrimale in systemate secretorio consistit, quod lacrimas generat, et systemate excretorio, quod lacrimas exhaurit. Glandula lacrimalis lacrimas animi motús vel reflexivas plerumque generat. Aliquid liquidi lacrimarum cum homo oculis conivet in vaporem vertit, et aliquid per punctum lacrimale exhauritur. Lacrimae per punctum exhaustae deinde per nasum exhauriuntur. Fluidum nimium quod in punctum non iit supra palpebram concidit, quae lacrimas effundas facit.^[8]
