Results of probing in the management of children suffering from Naso lacrymal duct obstruction
Journal Title: Scholars Academic Journal of Biosciences - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Naso-lacrimal duct obstruct (NLDO) is common in children; but its management raises many controversies. Some authors advocate for early probing, but others plead for delay. The objective of this study was to assess the outcome of probing in both young and old children and to find out its efficacy among them. Keywords: Probing, naso-lacrimal duct obstruction, children.
