Answers:
You may have an eye infection, but if you are having a mucousy discharge in both eyes it's most likely either and allergy or a some kind of chemical irritation!. I'm guessing the mucousy stuff is probably due to inflammation and irritation!.

I have developed the exact same problem!. I have never had a problem with allergies before this spring/summer either!.

I went to the doctor and she prescribed my Patanol eye drops!. They are very expensive, but there is an alternative called Ketotifen that recently went over the counter that my pharmacist recommended I try before shelling out a ton of money for the Patanol!. I have only been using the Ketotifen for about a day, so it's too early to tell if it is working!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

benadryl can decrease the itching and you might have an eye infection (it might be pus leaking out of your eyes)
