I'm wondering why this has been happening to me all my life, and what can be done (if anything) to fix it. Whenever I yawn or laugh its like I turned on a tear faucet in my eye balls... It's kind of embarrasing. What is the clinical reason behind this?

I think when you yawn, when your mouth opens it is attached to the muscles in your eyes, so it causes them to contracts when you yawn ans laugh. Just a guess.

That happens to me, too. I'm interested in reading the other answers. I think it has to do with over active tear ducts and the way your eyes open and close when you yawn or laugh.
