I am using the same product as Sylie is using---Bausch & Lomb ReNu Multiplus multipurpose solution. I clean Lisi's eyes one & usually 2 times a day w/this---just the fur underneath the eyes. I have also added a couple of drops of apple cider vinegar to her water. At the moment I am putting a gel in both her's & Kitzi's eyes due to a low grade infection.
Lisi had tear stains as a tiny baby---and they tend to come back w/a vengeance with any little flare up---I am just glad when we have them under control for a while.

We too have the same problem we have a couple of good months with no tear stains then they flare up again!! I am giving a little greek yogurt at the moment and have just purchased Optrex eye wash which contains boric acid hope we can get them under control again!!

I make my own greek yogurt which I layer with sugar free preserves. Mia loves my yogurt. She doesn't get any of the preserves...just yogurt. She eats a couple of bites every morning.
