Excessive tearing is when your eyes make too many tears, or tears don’t drain properly. Treatment can include removing an object that is irritating the eye (such as an inturned eyelash), or using eye drops or ointment to keep the eye moist. In some cases, surgery may be needed to fix an injured or blocked tear duct or to create a new one, or ultimately fix the tear drainage system.
If you have any questions about your eyes or your vision, speak with your ophthalmologist. He or she is committed to protecting your sight.
