ABSTRACT
Management of congenital nasolarcimal duct obstruction with massaging and probing without general anesthesia. Retrospective as well as prospective study. This study was carried out in the out patients department of DHQ teaching hospital charsadda for the period of nine months between 2010 and 2011. Total number of children/infants was fifty. All suspected patients were carefully examined and divided into two groups. Statistically analysis was done by student's "t" table. When results were summed up and test parameters were separated it was seen that the success rate with sample massaging and use of topical antibiotic was 90% at the end of nine months. Five infants improved with single probing. Infantile epiphora due to nasolacrimal duct obstruction generally cured with auto canalization/ massaging with topical antibiotics at the age of 5 months. The 2[nd] thing in this study that we can use topical anesthetic agent instead of exposing the infant to the hazard and the complication of general anesthesia
