A caruncle is a small, fleshy growth found in various anatomical contexts, but most notably in the eye, where it is part of the conjunctiva. Its primary function is to produce and secrete mucus to keep the eye moist and protect it from debris and pathogens. In some species, caruncles can also play a role in communication or mating displays. Overall, they contribute to maintaining the health and function of the surrounding tissues.
