My mother is 95 years old and cannot even read because of tearing eyes..any remedies?

Could be dry eyes: Seems contradictory, but she may have dry eyes. Tearing eyes maybe a result , also of blocekd tear ducts, allergies or an infection. Have her examined by an opthamologist to determine the etiology, but you can try an otc solution for dry eyes while waiting for her appointment.
