How can I stop my eyes from watering when I go outside?

I don't have allergies that I know of, but for some reason, my eyes get extremely watery at a certain park near my house. I don't know if it's because the grass is being chemically treated or if I've developed pollen allergies, but I'd love ways to make the watering stop! I also don't get a runny nose or any other typical allergy symptoms, just watery eyes.
What do you think?

Have you tried taking an antihistamine / allergy medicine before going to the park or while you're experiencing the watery eyes? It might be a quick way to find out if allergies are the cause or not (and if so you can look for alternative allergy treatment is you're avoiding meds).
Do you wear contact lenses? If you do, this might be it. I had a similar issue and it stopped when I switched brands & to daily lenses.
