Many women in their 40s or older suffer from dry eyes. This work explains complicated medical knowledge in a comprehensible and enjoyable alternative through girls’ manga. Concerned for those women who suffer from dry eyes, the creators attempt to ease their discomfort by producing a Web manga that does not rely on the written word.
