Generally, you will get more helpful answers if you include a
sample problem not just the results returned by some operation.

But taking just your posted result, I can use pattern matching
with Cases to do what you want, i.e.,

In[22]:=
sols = {{x -> 0, y -> 0}, {x -> 1, y -> 2}};

In[23]:=
Cases[sols, {_ -> b_, _ -> b_}]

Out[23]=
{{x -> 0, y -> 0}}

In[24]:=
Cases[sols, {_, y -> _?(#1 > 1 & )}]

Out[24]=
{{x -> 1, y -> 2}}
