Tears are responsible for cleaning, hydrating, and lubricating the ocular structure. However, if their production is excessive, they can become a very annoying problem and cause watery eyes. This can be caused by various conditions, such as allergies or infections. Excessive tearing is known as epiphora and is a very common reason for visiting an ophthalmologist. Knowing its cause early is very important to treat the discomfort and prevent certain complications.

Treatment is aimed at addressing the identified cause, which may range from medical treatment to surgery.
