Watery eyes during urination

Chloe Bulwer et al. Pediatrics. 2012 Mar.

Abstract

We report the unusual case of tear production with painless micturition, only once described in the medical literature in 1932. We report on a 3-year-old girl with painless "watering of her eyes every time she passed urine" present since birth and occasionally associated with a vacant look and dropping of her jaw. With only 1 previously described case in the literature but clear evidence from online fora, we describe how this phenomenon may be more common than previously thought.
