The Star Tear disease is a fictional illness similar and inspired to the Hanahaki disease.
It's not deadly but cannot be cured.
It was created from
The illness born from subjects of unrequited love in which the patient start to cry coloured tears similar to stars; hence the name. Along with the coloured tears, often there is a crystalline sound or similar noises when a tear shatters on a solid plan.
The disease affects the victim eyes, making them turn color blind and, in rare cases, make the victim lose sight.
The illness would disappear if the victim get their feeling required romantically and not in matter of friendship. Although the damages already done won't disappear.
As the tears rolled down his cheeks, colored with every possible shade he had ever saw, sliding down along with that clear and crystalline twinkling.
He wanted it to stop, he didn’t wanted to cry anymore yet he wanted it to continue. he couldn’t completely hate the tears falling down his eyes, so shiny and colorful, reminding him of the stars.
Because, even if they would have made him blind, it would remind him of her. And, that was the curse of the Star Tear disease.

Like Hanahaki disease, the cause of Star Tears (星涙病) is a situation of unrequited love by the person you love.
When a person cries star tears, a sound accompanies it. (What sound this is happening to be unspecified. Twinkling, or jingling sound,... etc....). If the symptoms are severe/the person has a serious case of the star tear disease, their photoreceptors cease to function and they go color blind. In rare cases, they may also suffer memory loss.
The star tears have color and shine/twinkle when they fall. (Perhaps the eventual color-blindness is because the star tears have color when shed.)
The way to heal from star tear disease, or at least to stop it, is naturally to have your feelings returned and be with the one you love.

Her vision turned blurry due to the flowing tears. Many colorful stars, accompanied by a twinkling sound, started to fall out of her eyes.
"Star tears disease huh?"
Her distant gaze shifted away from the stars that were piling up in the palm of her hands, her lips parted:
"So... this is the price of loving you."
