Sense organs

Looks like

An almond-sized gland under the upper outer eye socket rim, with tiny ducts draining tears from the inner corner into the nose.

What it does

Makes and drains tears that clean and feed the eye surface.

Keeping it well

Dry eye is common with age and screens; blinking breaks and lubricating drops help. Persistent watering needs the drainage checked.
