ABSTRACT
A retrospective study was designed to compare postoperative effect in 45 cases of patients of bicanaliculoplasty with lower canaliculoplasty. The 30 of 45 cases received bicanalicular stent and the 15 cases had lower canaliculoplasty using Mini-Monoka(r) (lower canaliculoplasty).The age ranged from 5 to 67 years (mean: 37.1 years).Thirty-two patients were men and 6 patients were women.After follow-up period of 6 to 12 month (mean 8.6 month), 27 cases (90%)of bicanaliculoplasty and 9 cases (60%)of lower canaliculoplasty became recanalized well. Postoperative complications included granuloma of the punctum in both cases (6 cases of bicanaliculoplasty, 3 case of lower canaliculoplasty)and loss of tube (3 case of bicanaliculoplasty, 6 case of lower canaliculoplasty). When both upper and lower canalicula were injuried, better result was seen in the method of lower canaliculoplasty using Mini-Monoka(r) than that of bicanaliculoplasty using bicanalicular stent. Both bicanalicular stent and Mini-Monoka(r) were good for canaliculoplasty.
