Reports  traded in Armenia, in the north of Asia, revealed that a woman, 22-year-old, weeps glass-like crystals instead of tears.

This phenomenon perplexes scientists as they could not justify it on sound basis.

The woman named Santik Krazayan from Cherak district in the middle of Armenia has suffered from controversial phenomenon since two months.

At first she thought that grains of sand entered into her eyes when she was at a dentist.

Members of her family doubt that narration. They claimed that silvers of glass hit the eyes of that woman.

The woman says her eyes excrete some 50 crystals a day. Occultists aren’t able to diagnose that strange phenomenon. They left that woman suffers limitless so far.

She told a local newspaper that her life has turned to hell.

Some doctors prescribe her antibiotics or eye drop to relieve pain but all medicaments were useless at all.

Ministry of Health in Armenia has released a statement saying that a senior occultists met the woman and examined her twice.

Experts collected crystals and sent them to be analyzed in the central laboratories of the ministry to define the real material of those crystals.

It is worth to mention that tears are a clear liquid secreted by the Lacrimal glands (tear ducts) in the eyes of all land mammals (except for goats and rabbits).

Their functions include lubricating the eyes (basal tears), removing irritants (reflex tears), and aiding the immune system.

Tears also occur as a part of the body's natural pain response.

Humans are the only mammals known to produce tears as part of an emotional response, such as out of joy or grief. Tears have symbolic significance among humans (see crying).

Emotional secretion of tears may serve a biological function by excreting stress-inducing hormones built up through times of emotional distress.

Tears are made up of water, electrolytes, proteins, lipids  that form layers on the surface of eyes.

The different types of tears—basal, reflex, and emotional—vary significantly in composition.
