Suggest Treatment For Watery And Droopy Eyes In Children

HI I have a 12 year old son, His eyes are always watery, droopy and face sort of sunken around eye area? He is always sniffing and is permanently on medication (incl antibioitics). Im concerned at the amount of medication he consumes. I toold him to an ENT speciailist after several GP consultations. They recomended removal of the adenoids. Issue is alot people are giving me mixed signals, yes it wil improve or no its a waste of time? Please advise. Thanks
