Introduction• Watering eye is an extremely common ocular
symptom. Watering eye
lacrimation epiphora Failure to differentiate these two conditions can result
in unwarranted and improper medication of a large number of patients.

THE WATERING EYE
• Lacrimation is watering that occurs secondary to excessive tear production in the presence of a normal excretory system.
• Lacrimation is watering that occurs secondary to excessive tear production in the presence of a normal excretory system.
• Epiphora is watering that occurs secondary to abnormal excretory system in the presence of normal tear secretion.

Secretory system
• Lacrimal gland: orbital part (2/3) palpebral part (1/3)
• Accessory lacrimal glands: Krause Wolfring

Secretory system• Normal tear secretion is necessary to keep the ocular
surface moist. The tears form a thin film, which integrity is crucial for normal corneal physiology.
• Tear composition and secretion - three layers:• the mucin layer: secreted by the goblet cells; alters the surface
tension of the tears and increases its adherence to the cornea.
• the aqueous layer: secreted by the accessory lacrimal glands (Krause and Wolfring) or in the presence of ocular irritation the main lacrimal gland.
• the oily layer: secreted by the Meibomian glands; prevents tear film evaporation.

Secretory system• Pathology of the tear film:
• deficiency of the aqueous layer - keratoconjunctivitis sicca.
• deficiency of mucous or meibomian secretions - instability of the tear film (compensatory excessive aqueous secretion - paradoxical watering).

Lacrimal drainage system - physiology• The puncta should be open and in firm apposition to
the globe.
• The tears drain into the puncta from the tear meniscii along the lid margins by capillary action and also due to the negative pressure created by the sac.
• As the sac is surrounded by the orbicularis muscle, normal blinking movements result in negative pressure in the sac when the lids are open and positive pressure when, the lids are closed.

Lacrimal drainage system - physiology -lacrimal pump
• The valves at the common canaliculus (Rosen Muller) and nasolacrimal duct opening into the nose (Hassner) ensure unidirectional flow of tears into the nose. Paralysis of the orbicularis can result in epiphora due to lacrimal pump failure.

Causes of watering eye
Lacrimation (hypersecretion):• Secondary to ocular inflammation or surface
disease.• Emotional distress• Irritation of the eyes ( smoke, dust, foreign
bodies, injury)

Causes of watering eye
Epiphora:(defective drainage): compromise of the lacrimal drainage system:
• a) malposition of the lacrimal puncta (e.g. ectropion)
• b) obstruction (anywhere along the lacrimal drainage system, from puncta to the nasolacrimal duct)
• c) lacrimal pump failure (lower lid laxity or weakness of the orbicularis muscle)

Aquired obstruction• Primary punctal stenosis (chr. blepharitis, idiopathic
primary stenosis, herpetic infection of eyelid, irradiation, cicatrizing conjunctivitis and trachoma, cytotoxic drugs, porphyria cutanea tarda, acrodermatitis enteropathica)
• Secondary punctal stenosis (punctal eversion)• Canalicular obstruction (cong., trauma, herpetic
infection, drugs and irradiation, chr. dacryocystitis)• Nasolacrimal duct obstruction (idiopathic stenosis,
trauma, previous surgery, granulomatous disease, tumours)
• Dacryolithiasis

Evaluation of an adult patient with watering eye
• Pseudoepiphora: epiblepharon, distichiasis, trichiasis, glaucoma…The lacus is dry and syringing is patent.
• Lacrimation secondary to corneal disorders or conjunctivitis is obvious due to associated symptomatology or on examination. Two conditions which can be mistaken for true epiphora are dry eye syndrome and blepharitis.
• Dry eye: Dry eye secondary to deficiency of mucous or meibomian secretions can have paradoxical watering. A diagnosis is usually based on reduced lower tear meniscus, and increased debris in tear film on slit-lamp examination. Increased tear break-up time (BUT) and reduced Schirmer's strip wetting corroborate the diagnosis.

Evaluation of an adult patient with watering eye
• Blepharitis: thickened, hyperaemic lid margins with scales deposited on the lashes, blocked meibomian openings, excessive abnormal meibomian secretions, and frothy discharge on the lid margins.
• True epiphora: secondary to either an anatomical obstruction or functional deficiency like ectropion or lacrimal pump failure – differentiated on the basis of syringing.

Evaluation
• External examination:– The puncta and eyelids (ectropion, punctal
obstruction – eyelash, conjunctivochalasis, eversion of punctum by large caruncle, canaliculitis, canturion syndrome – prominent nasal bridge)

Conclusions• The proper diagnosis and treatment of
watering eye is important due to its impact on the outcome of many other ocular procedures.
• Undiagnosed and untreated watering eye substantially decreases the patients' quality of life, visual acuity and impairs social contacts.
