When it's very cold outside and I just went out, my eyes water a lot and I have to wipe them out, than after that it goes back to normal.

But when it's very windy and cold, with snow powder as today, I wear motorcyclist type of compact goggles that seals around the eyes but not completely or else it will fog. I'm looking for old fashion Swiss (Cébé brand) army glacier goggles to try them out.

Once I faced a strong cold head wind and my eyes suffered the most and I got a cold just after that, as if the wind penetrated my head and weakened my body, or something like that. Wearing a winter cap or a wool beret and facing down against the wind might be a good method. A snorkel hood with coyote fur trim is very efficient but it affects my peripheral vision and it's too dangerous especially around the city and the drivers are crazy and not at all courteous towards pedestrians here.

Other than that, I didn't notice dry eyes during winter.
