Abstract
Evidence is offered to support a hypothesis that filaments are composed of mucus with epithelial squames, lipid, and foreign matter taken up secondarily. The condition results when mucus excess is present with receptor sites on the cornea. Treatment should be directed at the receptor sites, the mucus excess, or the underlying conditions responsible for the two components.
