  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

One hundred eyes in 87 patients were followed up for 6 months or longer after removal of nunchaku-style silicone intubation for lacrimal obstruction. Lacrimation disappeared or decreased in 78 eyes. Improvement occurred in 4 out of 4 eyes of punctal occlusion, 60 out of 74 eyes of nasolacrimal duct obstruction, 8 out of 12 eyes of chronic dacryocystitis, and 6 out of 10 eyes of canalicular obstruction. The present method was successful for punctal and naso-lacrimal obstruction in particular. Obstruction of lacrimal passage recurred in some cases even in the absence of epi-phora. It appeared that the present method is effective to alleviate subjective symptoms. In the majority of 22 eyes (22%), nasolacrimal passage became obstructed again within 6 months of tube removal. This feature may merit atten-tion in judging the effect of current treatment.
