Aw, poor Chum!
 Glad you have a vet appt booked already--we never mess with eye problems. Eyes are just too precious...In the meanwhile, if you have any sterile saline (not contact lens solution with cleaning agents added, just sterile saline) you can use that to rinse his eyes a couple times a day. It'll help soften up and flush out any matter in the corners of his eyes and remove irritants. It won't help cure an infection, of course, but it can help keep his eyes moist and feelin' comfy till your vet appointment.

I had some saline but it was outdated...so I made up a very mild boric acid solution and have been using that on sterile cotton pads to wipe
all the gunk off till we go to the vet.

With luck he's just got some dust irritating his eyes
 Hope you get a good report from the vet tomorrow!
