Continuous watering of the eyes is fairly rare and usually the cause is blockage of the tear ducts due to infection or injury, especially injury to the bridge or side of the nose. If condition is not relieved by the remedy given below, see your medical doctor; conventional treatment is to syringe blocked duct, give antibiotics if infection is present, or re-establish drainage from the eye into the nose by surgery. On newborn babies the tear ducts sometimes fail to open; gentle massage up the side of the nose to the inner corner of the eye may encourage them to do so, but sometimes a probe is necessary.
