The typical problem is that the inner ear and the eyes are reading the action in two different manners and the information to the brain is clashing. The fluids in the inner ear are trying to catch up to the body and equilize it while the eyes are telling your brain what's going on... however the eyes and the ears aren't sending the same message or communicating.  People who have more fluid in their inner ears or issues with their eyesight may be more prone to dizziness.

It is possible to cry under water. However, it may not be noticable without some sort of goggles or mask.\n\nDuring the act of crying, an excess of water and salt (the same liquid that normally coats your eyeballs) in excreted (produced) in your tear ducts around your eyes. Outside the water, you notice the buildup as it falls down your face. However, in the water you do not experience the noticable tear because it is dissipated into the water almost as fast as it is made.\n\nBelieve it or not, your body actually attempts to sweat in hot water (ie, hot tubs, etc). However, you do not notice this sweat because it becomes part of the water as soon as it reaches the skin surface.  Tears under water act in the same way.

Flush eye out with warm water, pain may persist b/c of irritation even if the hair is gone. If pain persists for more that one day see a doctor.

It is probably hay fever. Get eye drops.  However, for quick relief, try putting and ice pack or cold pack on your eyes. It will relieve the discomfort a bit.

When a person wears sunglasses in hot sun his eyes receive less light ,pupils of the eye dilate as though in darkness,eyes are wide open and tear secretion is reduced.After removing glasses for a second eyes are suddenly exposed to more light and heat,pupils immediately constrict,and a sudden gush of tears occurs.Tears secreted in glands (called lacrimal glands)having an opening into nose go into nose and induce sneezing.After a few seconds the eyes adapt to bright light and tear secretion is reduced.

that your eyes are dry, like cotton.  Probably the same as cottonmouth.

Do your eyes only get watery when you wake up?  You could be responding to dry air or it's possible that you have an allergy.  You may want to see your eye doctor to see what he/she recommends.  If it's an allergy, you may need some special eyedrops to help alleviate the symptoms.

As dunnro said, it's the "aqueous humor." Look at the source link below to see if you can answer any other eye questions yourself - conserve your points and your homework time.

People who have poor sleeping habits usually experience this. A high sodium diet or drinking water near bedtime can cause fluids to be retained in the eye. Normally, this should not happen. But poor sleep causes the body to forego some functions, like deal with water in your eyes.\n\nThat is why most beauty gurus recommend a cold compress to get down the swelling (it is similar to swelling in some injuries). Also, since it goes away as the day passes, that means that it is nothing serious, and is most likely related to a habit, like sleep :)

Your eyes have tear ducts that run down from the inside corner of your eye and drain at the back of your throat.  They are there because they are necessary to drain the excess fluid that is constantly bathing and cleaning our eyes.  When you cry this extra fluid floods the tear ducts and some collects in the sinuses and produces mucus.  A little crying is probably good for the tear ducts as it gives them a really good cleaning out. \n\n  Crying alot is not a good thing, unless you are crying for joy.

If you have more than just a little and if it's gluing your eyes shut, you need to see your eye doctor.  It's possibly a sign of a bacterial infection (maybe conjunctivitis).  Don't put salt water in your eyes - it will just irritate them.  If you need to, you can irrigate a little with artificial tears, sterile saline, or contact lens solution.  But get yourself to your eye doctor so that you can be treated properly.
