My eye won't stop watering and has a clear discharge. what could be wrong?

Infection: It most likely is a clogged nasal lacrimal duct (the overflow valve / drain). It could be a viral eye infection as well or reflex tearing from dry eyes. See an ophthalmologist.

Conjunctivitis: Sounds like it could be conjunctivitis, possibly bacterial given that discharge. You may need an antibiotic drop. If your eye gets stuck shut, again it could be bacterial in origin. If not, maybe viral or allergic.

Stinging pain in eye in morning, subsides after 1-2 hours but remains tender. A lot of watering but no discharge, what could this be?
Hello, I have had my left eye watering constantly for perhaps a week now, and wiping away tears/discharge has now irritated the skin around my eye. Also, it has been painful to press on the inside corner of my eye for quite a few weeks, and I am unsure if this is related. I thought this could be allergies as my head does feel stuffy intermittently, but my new red eye socket (not the eye itself) has motivated me to ask. Thanks, Logan Left Eye Watering?
