What Are Lacrimal and Tear Duct Disorders?
Lacrimal and tear duct disorders include a range of issues that can lead to discomfort, infection, and impaired vision. These conditions may manifest as chronic dry eyes, excessive tearing, or recurrent eye infections, impacting the quality of life of those affected. Such disorders require a careful and thorough evaluation to determine the underlying cause and to develop an effective treatment plan. At IC Laser Eye Care and Suburban Eye Associates, our team has the knowledge and expertise to diagnose and treat these intricate conditions. Utilizing advanced medical technologies and a patient-focused approach, our team is equipped to address each patient's unique needs, ensuring you receive the most effective care tailored to your specific condition.
How Are Lacrimal and Tear Duct Disorders Treated?
Treating lacrimal and tear duct disorders is highly individualized, focusing on the most effective and suitable methods for each patient's specific condition. Treatments can range from conservative measures to more advanced surgical procedures, depending on the severity and nature of the disorder. Conservative treatments often involve the use of eye drops to alleviate symptoms, warm compresses to relieve blockages, and antibiotics to address infections. When these methods are insufficient, the team may recommend surgical interventions. These could include procedures, like dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) to clear blocked tear ducts, balloon catheter dilation to widen narrow ducts, or intubation techniques to open up passageways, ensuring a comprehensive approach to restoring eye health and comfort. The commitment to patient care extends beyond treatment with a follow-up care plan designed to monitor recovery and prevent future complications.
What Are Common Symptoms of Lacrimal and Tear Duct Disorders?
Lacrimal and tear duct disorders can present a variety of symptoms, indicating an issue within the tear drainage system. Recognizing these signs early is crucial for timely intervention and treatment. Some symptoms that may indicate the presence of a disorder include:
- Persistent tearing, leading to watery eyes
- Recurrent eye infections or inflammation
- Discharge from the eye
- A feeling of discomfort or irritation in the eye
- Swelling near the inside corner of the eye

I have been a patient of IC Laser on Knights Rd for the last 5 years and have always left satisfied and happy. I have gotten contacts, prescription glasses and eye check-ups and all of those services have been exceptional. Picking out glasses is not an easy thing because you want your glasses to look right with the shape of your face. Dianna the Optician is super nice, very knowledgeable and patient with me every time I visit. She has even made my 6 year old nephew feel confident and cool in his first pair of glasses! I definitely recommend checking this place out for all your vision needs.
