They are located in the upper border of the tarsus eyelids tarsus , approximately in the middle between the extremities of the tarsal glands . Sometimes they are situated slightly above the tarsus. There are usually 2 to 5 of these gland s in the upper eyelid, and their function is to produce tears which are secreted onto the surface of the conjunctiva . They are named after Italian anatomist Giuseppe Vincenzo Ciaccio 1824 1901 , who described these glands in 1874. They are sometimes called Wolfring s glands after Polish ophthalmologist Emilj von Wolfring 1832 1906 , who described them during the same time period as did Ciaccio. Another type of accessory lacrimal gland are Krause s glands , which are smaller, more numerous than Ciaccio s glands and are found along the superior and inferior fornices of the conjunctival sac.
