Dryness: Try artificial tear drops, some causes are irritation due to eyelids rubbing on sheets while asleep. The is known as the floppy eyelid syndrome. Lubricating drops can help.

Blocked tear duct: You may have a blocked tear drainage duct. If this is the cause of your tearing, your ophthalmologist may be able to irrigate or flush out whatever is causing the blockage. Other causes are also possible.
