Is Using Visine Eye Drops Safe For Eye Watering To Infant?

yes, my 13 month old has one eye that is watering and she has a cold. I was looking to see if visine a would be ok to give? She doe not have pink eye or conjunctivitis no matting of the eye. Her eye just runs tears. Ive has this encounter before myself, and used visine a, just wondering if I should let it be or if it would hurt to give.
