Firstly, there are a few other symptoms that if you have you should go to the emergency room. Any pain in the eye or change in your vision would require you to present to the emergency room as soon as possible. As for what is this clear liquid, there are three common causes of eye discharge. First is bacterial conjuctivitis -- a bacterial infection of the eye.
Small amounts of white or yellow drainage from the eye are common. Some drainage or crusting of the lids, especially in the morning, may be normal. Clear or watery drainage from the eye is often due to allergies or a virus. The eyes may also be itchy and red and feel scratchy. Colds, flu, and viral pinkeye (conjunctivitis) also can cause watery eyes and a runny nose. It is very common for pinkeye drainage to cause the eyelids to stick together during sleep.
