If you peel the onions in a bowl of cold water or under a running tap this will prevent the fumes the cause your eyes to water from escaping into the air and rising up towards your eyes, you could also try this method, refrigerate the onion to cool the fumes that make your eyes water, this causes them to move down toward the floor instead of up toward your eyes.
