Tears in the eyes of the elderly are commonly associated with tears in the wind, which means that the tear glands secrete more after the eyes are stimulated, and some elderly people who have trachoma may also experience tears due to abrasion. In addition, some other factors, such as the stimulation of some gases and other substances that cause tears, or allergies to certain substances that cause tears, are related to the tearing of the eyes of the elderly. Patients should visit an ophthalmologist or a specialist to identify the specific causes of tearing in the eyes of the elderly. Trachoma can be treated with special antibiotics or, if necessary, by removing the eyelashes due to irritation of the ingrown eyelashes. Therefore, it is advisable to consult a specialist for tearing in the eyes of the elderly.
