Large Number of Eyelashes in the Lacrimal Sac Found by Dacryoendoscopy: A Case Report
Foreign objects sometimes enter the lacrimal sac. Here, we report the case of a patient with many comb-shaped eyelashes in the lacrimal sac and discuss the potential of using dacryoendoscopy to detect and remove foreign bodies from the lacrimal apparatus.

Congenital Fistula of Lacrimal Duct [PDF]
CONGENITAL fistula of the lacrimal duct is very rare, and is usually associated with other congenital anomalies (Duke-Elder, 1932, 1952; Gray, 1949; Spaeth, 1948). The epithelium of the ducts and alveoli of the lacrimal gland is derived from a series of ectodermal invaginations in the region of the superior conjunctival fornix.

Lacrimal Gland Microenvironment Changes After Obstruction of Lacrimal Gland Ducts
To investigate microenvironment changes of the lacrimal gland after obstruction of lacrimal gland ducts.The ducts of rat exorbital lacrimal gland were ligated by sutures for different durations. After that, the sutures in some animals were released, and they were observed for 21 days to evaluate the recovery of the lacrimal gland.
