Watery Eye

[Cory830]

I have this weird watery eye problem. Every couple of hours if I do something such as, bend over, sneeze, massage around my right eye at all or any other motion, I can feel a small amount of water go from one side of my eye, through the tear duct, to the corner of my eye nearest my nose and comes out causing water to poor from my eyes.

This is annoying more than anything, but there is some eye pain as well. I don't believe I have any allergies (I'm 21). I am not sure if it's eye irritation or eye strain or perhaps sinus problems (I do have headaches - never constant, usually feels like pressure and sometimes a throbbing pain usually on the right side or back of head, though when I sneeze, I get this weird tingling sensation on my left temple).

Anybody got any ideas?

Allergies affect both eyes and cause a lot of itching. Your problem sounds like a tear duct problem. See an Eye MD ophthalmologist. Find one at www.aao.org

If you want to check out allergies, see your regular MD.
