Have seen a few post on watery eyes. My eye Dr. had me use Systane and it really helped. You can buy it over the counter.

    Asked the pharmacist and she said no, not to use that. Told her had tried Visine, Genteal. She said to ask the Onc. for a prescription.

    eyes
    Just wrote to my Onc. about the watering eyes problem. Will let you know what he suggests. Have used Visine, Genteal, Walgreens brand eye drops. The watering is still here and now have itchy eyes, that look like sties in both eyes and red bags underneath from whiping them. Will be interesting to get his opinion.

    Systane
    That is what the eye doctor gave me this afternoon. Said to use the eyedrops 4 to 5 times a day for a week and then taper off to 3 or 4 times a day. Does this sound familiar?
