Answer : Using Opthalmic Sponges.

Explanation : Collecting tears with the trivial methods is often not possible as to avoid the tear reflex is a different problem. Tear collection with glass capillaries are the most widely used method for taking samples and is considered to be the best method for avoiding tear reflex.

To collect tears are from elderly people or small children's who had difficulties with glass capillaries; for them ophthalmic sponges was used.

This kind of opthalmic sponges proved to be well tolerated by the patient, especially in small children's, and also enabled standardization of the tear collection in terms of volume.

I would say that the most efficient method of collecting tears from an elderly woman would be to tell her something very sad that pulled at her heart strings such as say discussing the death of her husband if they had a good relationship and he died a painful death, say, as an example.

<h3>What is bile?</h3>

The liver of most vertebrates produces bile, also known as gall, which is a dark-green to the yellowish-brown fluid that aids in the small intestine's breakdown of lipids. Bile is continuously created by the liver in humans (liver bile), and it is stored and concentrated in the gallbladder. Hepatic bile is made up of 200 meq/l inorganic salts, 0.7% bile salts, 0.2% bilirubin, 0.5% lipids (cholesterol, fatty acids, and lecithin), and 97-98% water. Biliverdin, a green oxidized version of bilirubin, is one of the two primary pigments in bile. They combine to give feces their specific brown hue color. Adult humans produce about 400 to 800 milliliters of bile every day.
