What To Do for Watery Eyes
Watery eyes aren't pretty at all. In fact, they can be downright scary to the outsider looking in because he automatically thinks that red eyes mean pink eye. Whatever the case may be, your eyes are watery and you are tired of people inching away from you every time that you come close to them. Some simple tips and a quick trip to the doctor can reduce your watery symptoms quick and painlessly.
- Avoid touching or rubbing your eyes even though it may be hard to do so. This will only make them look worse, and you could do some damage to them by constantly rubbing them.
- Stay away from allergens that irritate your eyes. This might mean giving doggy or kitty to your aunt until you can rectify the situation. Or, it could be as simple as going in the house earlier to avoid the high pollen count of the day.
- Treat any allergies that you have with the appropriate medication as prescribed by your doctor. You may be referred to an allergy specialist to determine exactly what is making your eyes so watery.
- Discuss the usage of eye drops with your physician. Purchase the recommended product and follow all the directions. Do not go bonkers with it. Give it time to work.
- Go old school and apply cold, wet compresses on both eyes. Want really old school? Get some cucumber slices and apply them to your eyes. This also reduces puffiness.
