HAEMOLACRIA


























HAEMOLACRIA is a physical condition that causes a person to produce tears that are partially composed of blood. It can manifest as tears that are anything from merely red-tinged to appearing to be entirely made of blood.
Haemolacria is a symptom of a number of diseases, and may also be indicative of a tumor in the lacrimal apparatus. It is most often provoked by local factors such as bacterial conjunctivitis, environmental damage or injuries.
Acute haemolacria(occult mainly) can occur in fertile women and seems to be induced by hormones.

Calvino Inman, 15, weeps tears of blood 3 times each day
Rashida Khatoon, from India, can cry blood up to 5 times a day, and even faint with every weepin
