A cold in her eyes? Not sure what you mean.

 

Watering eyes is not abnormal and is a sign that the eyes are naturally flushing themselves out.


It should not be a concern unless the eyelids (conjunctiva) are red and swollen.

For red eyes or inflamed lids prepare chamomile tea: put 2 tea spoons of chamomile in a glass, add boiling water, let it sit for 10-15 min and filter it. Wash your eyes in this tea or wet a piece of cotton in it and apply on each ( closed )  eye for 3-5 min.

If your eyes are so sensitive and watery that it is even a problem to use cosmetics, get dill seeds, put 1 tea spoon in 1/2 glass of boiling water, let it cool and apply compresses on each eye for 15-20 min. Do it for 2 weeks every day, then once a month and you will never have this problem again.
