Other slang terms used to describe eye discharge include eye boogers, eye mattering, eye gunk and eye pus. Sometimes called rheum, eye discharge has a protective function, removing waste products and potentially harmful debris from the tear film and the front surface of your eyes.
Conjunctivitis (aka pink eye) Some eye boogers are different from common eye discharge and those just-waking-up eye boogers. If you notice your dog has clear or pus-like eye boogers or excessive redness in and around the eye, get it checked out by your vet â it could be conjunctivitis.
