Include Blocked Tear Duct information on your My EmpowHER page
Blocked tear duct (dacryocystitis) is the inflammation of the lacrimal sac, found on the side of the nose near the inner corner of the eye. The lacrimal sac drains tears from the eye into the tear ducts leading into the nose.
Dacryocystitis is sometimes a congenital condition, which means it is present at birth. The condition affects as many as one-third of all newborn babies.
