Basal tears: In healthy mammalian eyes, the cornea is continually kept wet and nourished by basal tears. They lubricate the eye and help to keep it clear of dust. Tear fluid contains water, mucin, lipids, lysozyme, lactoferrin, lipocalin, lacritin, immunoglobulins, glucose, urea, sodium, and potassium. Some of the substances in lacrimal fluid fight against bacterial infection as a part of the immune system.

No. Only tears in hemorrhagic conjunctivitis contain calcium

i think No, because calciuim is usually deposited in our bones and is used for muscle contractility...
Except from water, I think the tears contains amounts of sodium, potassium which are major electrolytes in our body and mucin which prevents our eyes from drying up...hmmmm what else? I donno anymore... this are just the few things I remember...
