Sorry to say that just because you tear when you eat it doesn't mean your dry issues are gone.  I have a very dry eye but it tears when chewing fast, when I sweat or choke on something.  Jill

Thank you Jill.  Its my first time to hear about this. I guess I better go see my eye dr for further follow up.  Do you have tears when you cry ?

Marvin,  No tears when I cry, which I found odd.  I don't know your history so not sure if telling you about the lens I use for my dry eye could help you.  Feel free to tell me more or ask questions, I've been dealing with the dry eye issue for 26 years.  Jill
