Dear Ms XXXXXXX
Unilateral watering eye or watering from one eye is likely to be due to either obstruction of nasolacrimal duct or associated infection. If the discharge is clear and not pus like then there is no cause for concern.
I would suggest the following
1. Eye massage
2. Ciprofloxacin Eye drops : 1 drop in each eye, 6 times a day
If the watering persists even after 2 days, then do consult your Pediatrician for further assessment.
Take Care
