Thanks JustJess and everyone else.
I'm starting to think I was just over-reacting. It happens. She's still tearing on and off, but it hasn't been a major thing before last night and she hasn't sneezed lately. I've been keeping a close eye on her and she's still showing no signs of discomfort (she's currently sleeping on top of my monitor).
I did have a good look at her eye and she didn't much like that, although to be fair I wouldn't be too big a fan of someone pulling at my eyelids either. Her sclera is normal and the lining of her eye looks okay. She hasn't had any problems breathing either.
Do cats get allergies? I don't actually know if that's possible, but if a person were suffering from these symptoms I'd assume that was the cause; it is that time of year after all.
I'll keep an eye on her for now and if it persists or worsens we'll go visit the vet. The advantage of having a dog breeder for a step father is I know the good ones in the area.
