Hello
It seems from the history that you 2 year old son is having yellow discharge from the eyes on waking up in the morning and he is on treatment with cough syrup for cold and cough.
This indicates infection of the eyes in the form of infective conjunctivitis with the source of infection being from the respiratory tract.
The treatment of the condition is by use of antibiotic eye drops.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for prescription of drugs.
Thank you
