Is this ok?

When I cry my eyes swell this has not been happening all my life it started like 1 yr. ago.... if I cry for along time my eyes get big and swollen if I dont cry for long they still swell a little. I wear glasses so does that effect it? I was just wondering if its ok. thanks for reading
