Watery eyes could be a sign of dry eye or allergies. A complete examination by your doctor could help identify the cause.

No. Many patients with glaucoma do have watery/irritated eyes, which can be caused by the medications and treatments for glaucoma. However, glaucoma does not cause watery eyes in isolation.
Glaucoma does not cause watery eyes. Glaucoma drops however love to cause this problem. If you have any concern it is always worth making an appt with your local ophthalmologist.
It can, but there are a number of other conditions that cause tearing.
