Dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR)
Watering eyes caused by blockage of the lacrimal duct is a relatively common condition, particularly amongst the elderly. The traditional method of treatment is an external, surgical removal of the stenosis. This is a lengthy, difficult procedure allied with considerable side effects for the patient.
biolitec has developed a patented DCR application set which turns the re-opening of the lacrimal duct into a safer and minimally invasive procedure. The treatment can be performed under local anaesthetic and leaves no visible scar.
