tearing eyes

- The original phrase "tear eyes" is incorrect because it implies the eyes themselves are made of tears.

- Option 1: Teary eyes is the appropriate expression. It refers to eyes filled with tears, typically due to emotion.

- Option 2: Tear up eyes is not a standard expression in English. It is a combination of verbs and nouns that doesn't fit correctly.

- Option 3: No substitution required would mean the underlined segment is already correct, which it isn't in this case.

- Option 4: Tearing eyes suggests eyes that are in the process of tearing apart, which is not the intended meaning.
