Why Do Finely Chopped Onions Make My Eyes Water More?

Whenever I chop onions finely, my eyes often start watering much more than when I cut them into larger pieces. Is the difference mainly about how much of the onion’s cells are being broken, or do onion type and freshness matter just as much?

I’m curious whether there’s a practical way to reduce the tears without changing the flavor or making the onion harder to handle. What has actually worked in your kitchen?
