Repeat probing for treatment of persistent nasolacrimal duct obstruction
Journal of American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus , 07/01/09
Repeat probing of the nasolacrimal duct is one treatment option for children with persistent symptoms of nasolacrimal duct obstruction following an initial probing. The authors conducted a prospective, multicenter study in which 20 subjects age 6 to <48 months underwent a repeat probing for symptomatic NLDO and had follow-up visits 1 month and 6 months after surgery. Treatment success was defined as the absence of all three clinical signs of nasolacrimal duct obstruction—epiphora, increased tear lake, and mucous discharge.
