ABSTRACT
Dacryocystorhinostomy [DCR] is a technically difficult operation and especially so in the suturing of the flaps of the sac to the nasal mucosa. Several techniques are described for the modification of the operation and the results are often disappointing. We developed a new modification for the simplification of the operation and obtaining better results by advancing the bony incision and suturing the anterior flaps only. Operation was done on 20 patients of different age groups, results are discussed
