How To Treat Dysfunction Of Tear Ducts Causing Constant Watering In Eyes?

Good afternoon. I have been having problems with my sinuses and bilateral tear ducts for approx 18 months. I have seen several local ENT s in the Thunder Bay area for opening of both my sinus passageways as well as my tear ducts with limited improvement. I am wondering if perhaps I need stents inserted into my tear ducts to prevent the constant tearing of my eyes?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it is better to see the eye surgeon instead as long as the question of lacrimal sac is concern otherwise sinusitis is nothing to do any thing much with this and sinusitis can be managed on conservatively hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
