Yes, Ayurveda has an answer.

'Triphala faant' - a remedy to be prepared at home is to soak all three ingradiets of Triphala ( Haritaki, vibheetak, Amla herbal fruits dried ones) in water overnight. In the morning mash and rub these in water itself. Filter well. Few drops in each eye may be poured twice or thrice a day on the day of preparation.

But it should be prepared daily. Not to be kept for next day use. Not to be refrigerated. Only use on the same day. Discard the remaining water or any one at home can wash eyes.

This having properties to clean ducts by its natural action. No side effects. Very safe. Eye friendly. Massaging (not of eyes but on the side of bone of nose adjacent inner corner of eye) is useful.

Alternatively get Triphala capsules of Himalaya herbals co. and cut the capsule, pour contents of three four capsules in 1/4 cup of clean water. Stir once or twice every two hrs. Filter in the morning. Use as said.

It will prevent need to probe if regularly used for 10-15 days.

For any further query, pl do not hesitate to ask through direct question.

Hope its helpful.
