This paper describes the author's own sur-gical method to cure the obstructed canaliculi and/or the nasolacrimal duct. When the method is applied to obstruction of the lacrimal cana-licli, it can be called as Reconstructive Cana-liculoplasty (RCP). When it is applied to obs-truction of nasolacrimal duct, it can be called as Reconstructive Nasolacrimaloplasty (RNP). The combined technique is to be called as Reconstructive Canaliculo-Nasolacrimaloplasty (RCNP). When the lacrimal sac is removed, it is called as the 1st method and, when not, as the 2nd method.
