Congenital Nasolacrimal Duct Obstruction: Comparison of Two Different Treatment Algorithms

Conclusions:Primary probing for CNLDO has a high success rate that is not adversely affected by increasing age. This study also indicates that if initial probing is unsuccessful, nasolacrimal intubation rather than repeat probing yields a significantly higher success rate.[J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus. 2016;53(5):285 –291.]
