Does this happen to you when you yawn?

Asked by Axemusica (9500points) May 7th, 2011

I’m not sure what the exact reason is for yawning, but when tired and trying to go to sleep & you yawn, do your eyes water up?

I was thinking of this last night as I was laying in bed and yawning every 5 seconds and water / tears were just flowing. I found it kind of annoying. What purpose does this reaction serve? It doesn’t help in the trying to fall asleep process for me. Does this happen to you? & does anyone know why or what reason this happens for?
