Please do not hesitate to take him to the Vet asap. My little dog had watery eyes for a couple of weeks that I treated with eye ointment and he got better. I, like you, thought it was a minor issue and treated it. However, later he developed a cataract(looked like a white spot in his eye) and uveitis, both serious conditions. As it happens the uveitis appeared after a groomer visit.
I am not suggesting that Gizmo has such a condition, but if he does, it needs to be diagnosed soon and treated properly before it gets worse.
I pray that he only has a minor infection, but better to be safe than sorry.
Get well soon Gizmo.
