Watery eyes: You infant may have plugged tear ducts. Ask your pediatrician how to massage the tear ducts at your next well baby visit. For now, use a cotton ball with warm water to wash away the green gunk.

Green goo in eye: Your baby may have a blocked tear duct or an infection. Call your pediatrician and report this and see about advice on exam and treatment.
