Stability ranking of candidate reference genes based on NormFinder analysis. The stability values (S) for each reference gene are plotted, with lower values representing greater stability. Genes are ranked from most stable (left) to least stable (right), with 18S emerging as the most stable and AP3D1 as the least stable reference gene. Control (n = 8), DED (n = 8), and glaucoma (n = 8) tear samples.
