Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Watery eye discharge affecting both eyes is most likely a symptom of conjunctivitis, a common viral or bacterial infection of the eye. Cataracts, eye trauma, and corneal abrasions typically present with different symptoms such as blurred vision or pain, and are not usually associated with watery eye discharge.
