Suggest Remedy For Watery Eyes
I am 70 years young, female, working full time and healthy. Both eyes weep throughout the day. I have an artificial tear duct in one eye. Previously I have had both tear ducts syringed. My visit to the eye surgeon is next month. Can I do anything in the meantime? Thank you.

Hello
Welcome to Health care magic.
I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that you are having watering in the eyes. Since you are having history of artificial tear duct in one eye this appears to be because of obstruction to the tear ducts.
Since you are visiting your eye surgeon next month in the mean time I advice you to go for antibiotic eye drops till then to prevent chances of infection.
Hope this is helpful to you.
Thank you
