Why a Tear Drainage Reconstruction is needed?
The intervention is needed to restore the tear drainage system and may involve opening the punctum (punctoplasty), repairing the canaliculus, or diverting tears from the lacrimal sac into the nose through a new passageway tear movement through an artificial canal.
