Abstract

Objective To evaluate the clinical effects of artificial nasolacrimal stent for chronic dacryocystitis.Methods Thirty-six cases(36 eyes)of chronic dacryocystitis were implanted with nasolacrimal stent after retrograde dilating nasolacrimal duct.Results Nasolacrimal stent were successfully performed in 36 cases(36 eyes).Post operation follow-up period was 1~6 months.The effective rate of operation was 100%.The complications were hemorrhage,1id swollen during irrigation of the lacrimal passage,Obstruction of stent.Conclusion Placement of nasolacrimal stent is a safe,effective method to treat chronic dacryocystitis.
