Answers:
I'll be checking back hoping someone give an answer. This is a great question.
Maybe it is just a reaction to pain- any sort of pain - most physical pain makes your eyes water to some degree- also babies cry if they are in pain or discomfort
Maybe the body cant distinguish between emotional/mental pain and physical pain and creates a similar response?
Just some ideas.
