This is a type of surgery done to create a new tear drain between your eyes and nose. You may need this surgery if your own tear duct has become blocked. Tears are produced in a gland called the lacrimal gland, located under the upper eyelid. When the eye is irritated excess tears are produced.
A Dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) is a treatment procedure and surgery which relieves one of excessive tearing. DCR is a type of surgery that is used to treat blocked tear ducts in adults. It creates a new passageway between the tear duct sac and the nose, bypassing the blockage and allowing tears to drain normally again.
