I have the problem in my right eye. It got infected. In right eye lot of yellowish discharge and watering is going on. As per invetigation, I found that my right has bottong 5 mm soft blokage and top has 13 mm hard blockage. Doctor suggested surgery has to perform to brek the blockage. I just wanted to know how typical this operation. One more thing I wanted to know can I use Systene and MO - 4KT drop both together.

Hi
You appear to be suffering from chronic dacryocystitis, which is causing you the problem of discharge. The right has lower canalicular block and upper canaliculus appears patent but further there is nasolacrimal duct block. An ENT checkup is must. The Dacryocystoehinostomy surgery is definitive treatment. The systane and mo kt will not resolve the problem but may be taken for other symptoms.
Best wishes
