What Causes Tearing Of Eyes And Swollen And Droopy Lacrimal Glands?

Been having an issue with both of my eyes always tearing and my lacrimal glands are swollen and droopy. Been to my physician and to John Hopkins specialist (Baltimore, MD) and they said everything was fine. Took blood work, numerous tests and they said everything is fine. Clean bill of health. How is everything fine when symptoms say something else? I don't like always having to use a tissue to wipe away tears. HELP!

Hi. It looks from your history that you may be suffering from blockage of the ducts draining water from eyes to the nose. An Ophthalmologist will certainly check , may do syringing and advice you accordingly .
