possible gross out warning: question related to gleeking
do eyes spray?

Gleeking is when saliva can be sprayed from under your tongue intentionally (maybe the same word applies to unintentional spray, too?) so it actually has a "name"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gleeking
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=gleek

does anybody else who wears glasses get little round spots on the INSIDE of your lenses? It is not streaks from eyelashes scraping, or dried tears from crying - they are little round dried drops - almost like fly specks. Do my eyes spray out some kind of secretion? Does anybody else have this happen? Does it have a name?

oh thankyou, Ptah - you brightened my day! I laughed really loud!

I'm not even sure that is what it is, but I'm in a weird mood today.

3. No idea about a name,
but yes, I get it. Mostly when it's hot and I'm sweating anyway and do some physical work.

4. would that just be sweat?
these are pretty small droplets size of a period ".", and they "appear" all the time - whenever I take my glasses off to clean them (often because they are also so old and scratched). Usually there are more than a dozen or so on each lens.

I have decided my eyes are spraying like a sneeze, somehow.

5. my glasses
are always dirtier on the inside of the lens than the outside. It has been one of my life's biggest mysteries. I hope to find the answer someday.

6. No, not sweat,
since I can feel the spray coming out of the tear duct. But yes, exactly, just little droplets. I'm sure there's a name for it, but I've searched both in English and German and couldn't find anything.

7. I'm thinking there should be some stop motion photos of it too,
like bullets traveling or a sneeze in very slow motion.
