Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having acute Dacrocystitis where there is inflammation in tear ducts causing this problem.
It might not be having any connection with sunburn.
You might require one course of antibiotic and anti-inflammatory medicine course to cure this infection.
Consult your doctor and get examined.
Ok and take care.
