The symptoms of red eye with mucoid discharge indicates infection of the eye in the form of conjunctivitis.
This requires treatment by the use of antibiotic eye drops like Moxifloxacin eye drops. The use of pain killer tablets will provide relief from pain.
If possible do send me a photo of the affected eye so that I can confirm the diagnosis and advice you accordingly.
