Excessive watery eyes
Hi, I’ve been told I’ve got dry eyes the last two years but I believe it’s a blocked tear duct. Both my eyes tear every few minutes and I have discharge in the morning usually. I sometimes get redness in the inner corner of my eye. I’ve tried many eye drops but nothing works. How do I know which one it is?
Thank you

Hello
I would recommend you to consult local ophthalmologist and he will perform syringing test for you to confirm patency of lacrimal passage

Go to an ophthalmologist and request him to do syringing. If it is blocked then the water will not pass to throat and if open you will feel water going to throat.
