16) Lacrimal Caruncle

Weird Words - Lacrimal caruncle

Your lacrimal caruncle is that pinkish blob in the corner of your eye that kicks off when you get hay-fever. It’s basically a lump of glands covered in skin.

Used in a sentence:

At the battle of Hastings, Harold got an arrow right in his lacrimal caruncle.

That last picture of an eye has made me feel weird. I don’t think I’ll remember any of those, apart from perhaps “snood” because I already knew it as clothing. Who knows, they may well have all left my brain by the time I finish this last… what?
