Tear over-secretion is usually caused by irritation or inflammation of the surface of the eye. This can occur for a number of reasons, including eyelash and eyelid problems or allergies. Oddly, a dry eye problem can sometimes cause watery eyes, because the eye produces excess tears to combat the irritation and dryness.
Tearing (/ËtiÉrÉªÅ/), lacrimation, or lachrymation (from Latin lacrima, meaning 'tear') is the secretion of tears, which often serves to clean and lubricate the eyes in response to an irritation of the eyes.
