Lacrimal Gland Microenvironment Changes After Obstruction of Lacrimal Gland Ducts [PDF]
Investigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2022 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.

Direct endoscopic probing for congenital lacrimal duct obstruction [PDF]
Clinical & Experimental Ophthalmology, 2013 AbstractBackgroundThe most common treatment for congenital lacrimal duct obstruction is standard probing without dacryoendoscopy. However, the lacrimal duct cannot be observed in this procedure. If the probing procedure allows the observation of the lacrimal duct, it could be more successful and safer.

Comparison of dacryocystography and lacrimal scintigraphy in the diagnosis of functional nasolacrimal duct obstruction [PDF]
British Journal of Ophthalmology, 1999 It appears from the literature that no standardised examination exists for patients with functional nasolacrimal duct obstruction. The role of dacryocystography and lacrimal scintigraphy was compared in the diagnosis and management of these patients.Patients who were clinically diagnosed as having unilateral or bilateral functional nasolacrimal duct ...
