Salty Tears: It is the salt content in the tears that gives you this stinging sensation.

Eyes tearing: Your symptoms are associated with your eyes tearing and from wiping them off. They have nothing to do with wearing your glasses. Also, you indicate that you use benzoyl peroxide on your facial skin. Be really careful that none of that gets close to your eyes because that could cause some of your symptoms as well.
