Is yellow discharge normal after my cat's eye removal surgery?

Question

My cat is about 4 weeks post Enucleation. He is one year old. He has had about three yellowish/brown boogers that he has snorted out on the same side as his Enucleation. He had some ear drainage as well when I adopted him which I was told was typical post surgery. Are the boogers actually discharge post surgery? He is eating, drinking, and using the litter box. Still playful as ever. Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Male | neutered | 1 year and 2 months old | 7.5 lbs

IT is not uncommon fr some nasal discharge or blood - the tear ducts naturally drain down through the back of the nose/throat. If he is otherwise well I would continue to monitor - a vet check is recommended if the discharge is persistent, thick/coloured or any weight loss or fever develops
