Watery Eyes are a Major Nuisance

D0 not let watery eyes affect your morning routine.

Waking up with watery, goopy, and irritated eyes is not the best way to start your day. My roommate and I both seem to struggle with this watery eye nuisance  every morning. It is a little difficult to carry out daily morning duties when your eye has turned into a mucky swamp.

Here’s the scoop. According to healthtap.com, your tears are a product of oil, water, and mucus. The mucus can build up and stick to eyelids as you sleep. If you are a victim of allergies, watery eyes can be even worse. No worries, this is a normal body function and does not need medical attention. Although, if you wake up with crusty eyelids paired with a red, itchy eye, you may have contracted pink eye. This does demand immediate medical attention due to the contagious nature. The longer you wait, the higher the risk to pass along pink eye to your loved ones.

Be sure to visit an Indiana Dr. Tavel location if pink eye symptoms have surfaced. We have extended office hours for your convenience and multiple locations throughout the Indianapolis area.
