Default watery eyes

[QUOTE=bubblyshar;1103543]Recently my Dad's eyes have started watering alot.. He is also complaining about phlem in his throat. Has anyone exerperienced similar symptoms..

Also, I have read about Aloe Vera in the past. Has anyone had any benefit in drinking Aloe vera?

Thanks for all your advice.

maybe because he's not blinking his eyes enough. this is common, almost a hallmark of PD, the eyes are actually dry and his sense to blink as to protect the cornea of the eyes is diminished; when the tear ducts kick in and flow, they often flow too much.
Phlegm, often in morning ?because he is reaching the point where the swallowing response is affected. Sometimes i wake up choking because of all the mucus that just seems to pool in my throat. i use mucinex, if i think i'm on an "off" night. Aloe vera drinks are tasty, make good cocktails too!
