Blinking distributes fluid from the tear ducts, called "basal tears", which are different in composition from "crying" or weeping tears (which contain more hormones and proteins).

No it is not true. When you blink you are moisturising your eyes.

No! Because then you would have to be drinking water constantly and because you blink more than people normally drink water it would be impossible to be hydrated.
