Tear duct treatment refers to various procedures aimed at addressing issues with the tear duct system, which includes the lacrimal glands and the tear ducts themselves. These treatments can range from surgical interventions, such as dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) or intubation, to non-surgical methods like warm compresses and massages to help unblock clogged tear ducts. The goal is to improve the production and drainage of tears, ensuring adequate lubrication for the eyes and reducing symptoms such as chronic watery eyes, eye discomfort, or recurring infections.
