What Causes Watering Of Eye?

Hi my left eye has been watering alot to the point were I can barely open it without wiping away tears. I wear contacts and have changed them normally. I even let my eyes breath for a few days withought my contacts in. Butthis type of thing has never happened before and its only in the left eye. Im fine indoors and bright lights inside however right as soon as I go out I need to cry out the eye. I also have been applying eye drops regularly as well abd they seem to help minimally.

You might be having Contact lenses induced keratitis. Stop wearing contact for 2 weeks.
Use FML e.d. 4 times per day for 1 week with tapering one drop every week for 3 weeks. Use refresh tears e.d.6 times per day gor 1 month..see yhe result after 1 week..if not relieved show to eye specialist
