Eye watering: The most common cause of eye watering is irritation of the ocular surface. The irritation stimulates tearing via a reflex involving the lacrimal gland. Using artificial tears to lubricate your eyes to prevent stimulation of this reflex generally takes care of this issue. If it persists, i would recommend an eye exam to rule out other causes of your eye watering.
