Congenital Nasolacrimal Duct Obstruction
2014Congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction (CNLDO) is a common cause of epiphora in children with incidence of symptoms ranging from 1.2 to 30 % [1, 2]. However the incidence of anatomic nasolacrimal duct obstruction seen in stillborn is much higher at around 73 %.

The Natural Course of Congenital Obstruction of the Nasolacrimal Duct
Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus, 1978In order to establish the rate of spontaneous resolution of congenital obstruction of the nasolacrimal duct, 50 infants, referred from a local pediatric group practice over a period of five years, were followed from the time of first symptoms until 8 to 13 months of age.

Probing and Irrigation for Congenital Nasolacrimal Duct Obstruction
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1986I reviewed the results of probing for congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction in a series of 107 patients, with special reference to age at the time of probing. Relief of tearing and discharge was achieved in 90% of patients with the first probing, and an additional 6% were cured after a second probing.

ABSTRACT A group of 52 pediatric patients with lacrimal obstruction were considered to be high risk since they had been previously probed (27 patients) or were older (average age 23 months). At the time of probe and irrigation, a small, straight hemostat was placed into the nose to grasp the inferior turbinate and rotate it a full 90° inward.
