There is a passage called the nasolacrimal duct that allows tears to drain through the nose (why your nose runs when you cry). It also allows air to come through the tear duct if enough pressure builds. Perhaps your tegu has a wider passageway or more pressure in the nasal cavity. Sometimes my tegus (maybe it is just one) or my gator will have eye bubbles if they try to eat a prey item that is too big or eat it the wrong way.
