    Abstract:

    AIM:To investigate the application of double-passage silicone tube in the treatment of traumatic inferior lacrimal duct laceration. METHODS:Thirty-two cases (32 eyes)of traumatic inferior canalicular laceration were treated by canaliculoplasty from October 2008 to September 2011. All cases were performed with silicone tube double-passage annular canalicular intubation.The condition of epiphora and irrigation of lacrimal passage were observed after 6 months extubation continuously. RESUITS:The 32 cases were followed up in 6 months after extubation, the treatment was effective in 29 cases (91%),3 cases (9%) showed no effect. CONCLUSION:The effect of double-passage silicone tube in the treatment of traumatic inferior lacrimal duct laceration is satisfactory.
