Question:

I put medicated eye drops into my eye now i can taste them. why?


Answers:

They drain down through the nasolacrimal duct into the nose, and from there into the back of your throat, and some gets on your tongue where you can taste it.

Did you ever see "stupid human tricks" where the guy squirts milk "out of his eye"? It is the same process, only in reverse.
