Epiphora is the condition of having watery eyes. Usually, a few tears are regularly produced in our eyes by the lachrymal glands. These serve the purpose of cleaning and lubricating the eyes. The tears get drained through the tear ducts or the nasolacrimal ducts into the nose. Any blockage or narrowing of the tear ducts can lead to an overflow of tears on to the face. This overflow of tears is known as watery eyes or Epiphora. In some cases, the drainage system for tears works well, but watery eyes result from excessive production of tears. Causes leading to excessive tear production are allergies, conjunctivitis, chemical irritants, entropion or ectropion, and blepharitis. Although watery eyes can occur at any age, little babies and people over 60 years of age have higher chances of being afflicted. The symptoms that accompany watery eyes are eye pain, inflammation of eyes, and impaired vision. Homeopathy has highly beneficial medicines to treat watery eyes. For the homeopathic treatment for watery eyes to be effective, it is essential that the precise details of each case are made clear.
Homeopathic Treatment for Watery Eyes
To decide on medication, accompanying symptoms like burning, itching, swelling, sensitivity to light, pain and redness in the eyes also have to be taken into consideration. Homeopathic treatment for watery eyes aims at treating the cause leading to the problem to ensure complete recovery. The most prominently indicated homeopathic medicines for watery eyes are Euphrasia, Natrum Mur Silicea, Pulsatilla, and Allium Cepa.
1. Euphrasia – A top Grade Homeopathic Medicine for Watery Eyes
Homeopathic medicine Euphrasia, commonly known as eyebright, has a broad sphere of action in the treatment of eye problems. Euphrasia is a very good homeopathic medicine for watery eyes. It works well when the eyes are constantly watering all day. Along with this, a pressure is felt in the eyes. Burning and itching are other accompanying features. Euphrasia is also an excellent homeopathic medicine for watery eyes resulting from inflammation of the conjunctiva. Sometimes, sticky eyelids may also occur.
2. Natrum Mur and Silicea – Wonderful Homeopathic Medicines for Watery Eyes resulting from Stricture of the Lachrymal Duct
Natrum Mur is a very effective homeopathic medicine for watery eyes. It is effective for watery eyes caused due to stricture of the lachrymal duct. In such cases, the eyes feel wet all the time and tears may even roll over on to the face. Sometimes, burning and smarting sensation in the eyes are also present. Sticky eyes, especially at night, may also occur. Cloudiness, a sandy feeling in these eyes, and corrosive eyes are other features that may arise. Silicea is also an often used homeopathic medicine for newborns with watery eyes resulting from the swelling or stricture of the lachrymal duct.
3. Pulsatilla – A Homeopathic Medicine for Watery Eyes in Conjunctivitis
Pulsatilla is another very useful homeopathic medicine for watery eyes. It is used for watery eyes caused due to catarrhal conjunctivitis. In such cases, there is a profuse flow of tears. This is accompanied by burning and itching in the eyes. The symptoms get worse in a warm room. Other accompanying features are a feeling of sand in the eyes, pressure on the eyes, a need to rub the eyes, and sticky lids. Over sensitivity to light is also present.
4. Allium Cepa – A Homeopathic Medicine for Watery Eyes when the Lachrymation Is Bland
Allium Cepa is a high-grade homeopathic medicine for watery eyes. It works well when the flow of tears is bland or non-irritating. In such cases, the flow of tears is very heavy and may reduce in the open. The eyes may also seem red and swollen. Allium Cepa is also used in allergic cases where the nasal discharge is very acrid, burning and is accompanied by a profuse and bland flow of tears.

I have had watery eyes for about a year now. Sinuses are inflamed, sometimes worse than other times. I will blow my nose and have some blood appear. Feels like my lacrimation is due to poorly functioning lymphatics, but not sure. Tried everything. For a couple of months they just randomly stopped watering, only to start up again. Very frustrating and annoying. No real sinus pressure that I can detect, no nasal drainage most of the time, occasional need to blow nose. Nothing really seems to impact the watering. Cannot wear eye makeup, even though all hypoallergenic. Really need some guidance.

मेरी आयु ७१वर्ष है। दोनों आंखों में लैंस प्रत्यारोपण हो चुका है। आंखों से गले के बीच आंसू नलिका बंद है। आपरेशन भी हो चुका है लेकिन फिर भी आंसू निकलते रहते हैं।
नेत्र चिकित्सक का कहना है कि आंसू आने बंद नहीं होंगे। आंसू आने से दिन भर आंखें गीली रहतीं हैं।रात में मैल भी आ जाता है।
कोई उपयुक्त होम्योपैथी औषधि हो तो कृपा करके बताने का कष्ट करें।
हृदय रोगी होने के कारण ऐलोपैथिक दवाओं से परहेज़ करता हूं।
