Excessively watery eyes 4 months post op. Could this be related to the rhinoplasty?

Asked By:zutter in United Kingdom, GB

I had a primary rhinoplasty where I had my septum straightened, dorsal hump removed and tip refinement 4 months ago. Since the surgery, I have had excessively watery eyes. I get a very large amount of what I call 'eye gel' (vitreous gel?) which obscures my vision and I have to remove it multiple times per day to correct my vision. As this coincided with my post-op period, could this be related to the rhinoplasty? Or is there likely some other cause?
