Hi

I have read your query and understood your concern
The incident might have caused a corneal irritation ,hence the watering of eye is happening. Avoid exposure to bright light for 3 days and you could use refresh tear drops to ease the irritation . Incase symptoms aggravate kindly get an ophthalmologist opinion
