If conservative methods to treat lacrimal disorder are not successful, a consultant may recommend surgery.

Tears in your eyes are produced by your lacrimal glands near the outer corners of your eyes. Lacrimal disorders include:

  • Not enough tear production (dry eyes)
  • Reduced tear drainage (blocked tear ducts)
  • Infections or irritations around the eyes or eyelids

The type procedure will depend on your own situation. Be sure and discuss the details with your surgeon.
