What Causes Green Eye Discharge In Infants?

My nine month old baby has had a runny nose for a week or so (she has four teeth coming in so I assumed teething) then she developed a cough and she is waking up with her eyes closed shut with green puss... My pediatrician is away for the next 4 days... suggestions?

It's eye infection; first clean it with clean swab and apply genticyn eye ointment 3 times a day. Keep a separate towel for the child and not to be used by others to prevent spread of infection.
