often kids can get conjunctivitis or weepy eyes with a virus so that is probably what is happening. if she has a runny nose she could be rubbing the snot into her eyes in which case it would be bacterial conjunctivitis and need antibiotic eye drops. usually even if they think it is viral they will give drops anyway just in case. is there any redness in the whites or even on the skin around her eyes? that would suggest conjunctivits too. and if your eyes are weepy then it probably is that you both have it as it is highly contagious. is the stuff coming from here eyes green or puss like?
just keep wiping her eye with salty water, but make sure you use a clean cloth between eyes until you see the GP.
