Watery eyes, also known as epiphora, occur when there is an excessive production of tears or an inability of the tears to drain properly from the eye. This condition can manifest as constant or intermittent tearing and may affect one or both eyes. The causes of watery eyes are varied. Common causes include allergies, where exposure to allergens like pollen or pet dander leads to irritation and increased tear production. Dry eye syndrome, paradoxically, can also cause excessive tearing as the eyes attempt to compensate for insufficient lubrication. Infections such as conjunctivitis (pink eye) or blepharitis (inflammation of the eyelids) can lead to watery eyes due to inflammation and irritation. Blocked tear ducts, a condition known as nasolacrimal duct obstruction, can prevent tears from draining properly, causing them to accumulate and overflow. Other causes include environmental factors like wind or smoke, which can irritate the eyes and stimulate tearing. Treatment for watery eyes depends on the underlying cause. For allergic reactions, antihistamines or allergy eye drops can help alleviate symptoms. For dry eye syndrome, artificial tears or prescription eye drops may be used to provide adequate lubrication. If a blocked tear duct is the issue, a procedure to clear the obstruction or the use of tear duct stents may be necessary. In cases of infection or inflammation, appropriate antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications may be prescribed. Addressing environmental irritants and maintaining good eye hygiene can also help manage symptoms. Consulting a healthcare provider or an eye specialist is essential for determining the exact cause and receiving a targeted treatment plan.
