  It is not easy to tell what cause the discharges and runny nose for your baby. Usually, pink eyes and eye infection are blamed to the excessive eye discharges. But I seldom heard that people with pink eyes or eye infection will get runny nose. It seems much more like a hay fever. It causes by the allergic reaction to the outdoor pollen. And the hay fever is possible to cause nasal congestion, thus make people get runny nose and some eye problems such as itch or burning eyes, also, discharges sometimes.
