excessive mucus discharge in eye

I use 3 glaucoma meds daily and after a cataract surgery a year ago,my right eye keeps discharging mucus excessively. My doctor recommended the use of non preservative eye drops for what he considers dry eyes, but the problems of excessive mucus has not diminished with the use of the lubricant.  What can I do to lessen the discharge?

Difficult to know exactly what the problem is without an examination.  Could be from eyelid problems, oil gland problems, conjunctival issues, allergy to the drops, etc.  Consider seeing a oculoplastic specialist for an exam.
