For some reason, my eyes keep on tearing up and it has gotten so bad that when it does happen, the frequency is about 1 every 10seconds. It's not like I have sore eyes or anything. Anybody have any ideas?

Sugababe it sounds like your tear ducts are blocked and you need to seek advice from your Doctor. My husband had the very same thing but it cleared up very quickly with the aid of drops.
Be sure your not sitting next to a wide open window and the pollen is getting blown into your eyes without you knowing. Or perhaps you have a pet that you have a sensitivity to..cats fur, dogs hair. Could be the dust mites on the march again..
You should on no account rinse or bath your eyes with anything unless it is under the supervision and advice from your doctor.

You might, conversely, be suffering from dry eye syndrome, you can get it checked with a simple test at docs or some chemists can with a thin strip of specially treated paper stick. When eyes are not producin enough tears either through pollution or illness (also ageing) the eyes sting like hell to get the tear ducts to produce more. If the ducts are blocked then you need to see doc anyway. You can buy eyedrops or gel to lubricate the eyeball, artificial tears, that form a protective barrier over the eyeball.

I think you mean excessive watering.
Could be you have blocked tear ducts.
Massage the bony area to the side of your eye by your nose.
Give your eyes a good eye bath.
Go and see your doctor if it still continues.

Are you allergic to something? Sounds like you might have an allergy that needs investigating. Try some Piriton and see if that helps you out.
It's also possible you have an eye infection. Ask your GP what they say.

do u wear contacts? i'm assuming not or u would have thought of that already. how about a perfume/cologne that somebody nearby is wearing and ur allergic to? if u have any allergies, check around for those things.

No ideas, except that you should see a doctor and find out what's going on.
Good luck!

do you work in an airconditioned place? maybe your eyes are just dry at the moment.
