Beta Blocker And Eye Drainage

I am a doctor and I have a weird problem for quite sometime. My left eye used to drains tears ( don't know how to frame it correctly). I had to wipe my eyes every few minutes. A few months back I self diagnosed myself with hypertension, although now I believe I am not hypertensive. I started taking metoprolol and to my surp rise, the drainage from my eye stopped. I have tried stopping metoprolol, for a few days and my blood pressure remains normal but the drainage starts the very day I stop metoprolol. I have also tried amlodipine to see if that helps (don't want to continue beta blocker because i have abnormal lipid profile) but that does not help with drainage. No eye pain, foreign body sensation and intraocular pressure normal. If anyone has any experience or information about this please let me know. Thank you
