Is that normal? I know it sometimes happens but does it permanently damage the eye? It's just that i blew my nose and a little puff of air came out with eye fluid / tear. Any answer is appriciated thanks!

no you are fine. Your sinus cavaties empty into your eye socket with little vents. You ever seen the guy spit milk out of his eye. That is how he does it. Your cold is just clogging the normal passage and when you blow extra pressure through it finds a way to vent. the eye is the easiest place. Ears also.

All it means is that your nose is congested. Your eyes are connected with your nose, that's were tears drain down into.
When you blew your nose, you increased the pressure in there, but due to your congestion, there was no where for the air to go but up. My advice would be to try to clear some of that congestion and not to blow your nose so hard. Feel better!

Your ears and nasal passages, have some connection with each other, but as far as I know your eyes do not. It may be that you have some drainage from your eyes connected with having a cold. Obviously if this continues, after you are over your cold, see a doctor, but for the next few days, I wouldn't worry about it.

It' s normal because your eyes/sinuses etc are all connected and because you are congested there is a lot of pressure in there. I don't think you have anything to worry about. Good luck and feel better
