Blocked Tear ducts and options

Hi Beelzebub

Welcome to the forum, and  saying hello to you.  I have read your other post too - well done for getting through treatments and  making good progress into your recovery.

I don't have the  exact problem as you, but do have a  watery eye where I had my operation and treatments  which involved some of  the sinus area. My problem started happening 5 years down the line, my bottom eyelid droops a bit which I believe is the cause of this.  This was apparent after my ops and treatments finished.  I could have had a procedure  for this but for me I did not look any further into it as mine was manageable. Some days are better than others with this and  certain environmental  factors can make things worse.  I know for me it is very irritating when it is at its worst. I use eye drops too  when needed as I have also been diagnosed with dry eye too.  It is good you have now been seen by the  eye doctor so they  give you the advice you need to help manage this till you get something done for this. 

Wishing you the best with getting this fixed.

Hi Nicky 

Thanks for your response.

Like you certain factors make it worse for sure.  The problem I have is I am usually looking at a screen for 10-14 hrs a day and I wear varifocals which means my vision through my eyes becomes a nightmare and i am having daily headaches.

I am bad when i sit down to try to unwind with a read a book as i take off my glasses and hold my book way too close to try to manage the issue but that is not feasible all the time.

Congratulations on hitting 5 years that is my next target.
