This picture some artist has tried to so show the close relationship between the eye and the nose. This patient’s eye may have been removed due to cancer. However, now there is so much gap between the nose and the eye that the finger is passing. In the same way in silicone stent surgery and DCR surgery the communication of eye with the nose is restored. Silicone stent reopens the natural way in operation. In the DCR operation, an alternative route is created. This results into drainage of the water to flow from the eye to the nose again. However, this artificial route is never equal to the natural path. There is risk of some problems and complications. The biggest problem is that in many patients this pathway closes again over time. That is, the chances of failure in this operation are very high.

In these patients, since the drainage duct is blocked, so in this operation an alternative route is craeted for drainage by breaking the bone. Below are some scenes from this operation
