Why do I get watery eyes?!! Help!?!


Question: When I walk outside, down the street or through a shopping center, I get watery eyes. This problem worsens when it's windy outside and I have to look at the ground or wipe my eyes to alleviate the blurred vision. It makes me feel embarrassed and uncomfortable and makes it difficult to make eye contact with passers-by. Please help!

This will sound strange, but it sounds like it could be dry eyes. Tears are made up of a few different substances, including oil and water. When insufficient tears are made (properly balanced tears) the eyes try to compensate by making more tears.

I'm thinking it is dry eyes because you mention that windy days make it worse. Try artificial tears (Refresh or theratears in the single use vials) and see if it doesn't clear up.
