At the HCMC Eye (BV) Hospital, T. was diagnosed with living tears. Due to long-term inflammation, the gland is blocked. Although the doctors have been washed twice, the tears have not returned to normal. Currently T. is still being monitored and if necessary, additional surgery or surgery to create tears is needed.

According to the Russian doctor, depending on the cause of the disease, the doctor will decide the appropriate treatment. For children with tears right from birth, only physiological saline may be needed, but when children have a lot of it, they must have antibiotic drops along with a day of directing. In case the child is still not cured, the doctor will give the child a clean wash and practice. However, this treatment is usually done at 3 months of age. At that time, the child will be pumped several times with a fixed day. During the flushing process, when the child finds out that the child has a constitution, the doctor will conduct the practice. As for children with ethical dysfunction, surgery must be performed to close the detection hole. Children who come to the hospital when their eyes are swollen, abscess bags will be punctured to treat abscesses, then surgery will be performed with a tear bag. About 6 months later, the patient will be removed from the silicone tube and most patients will return to normal.

Russian doctors insist, children with live tearing disease if not treated early will cause acute, severe, and severe, and acute septicitis, causing sepsis, meningitis, death. Therefore, Russian doctors recommend that, in newborn babies with eyes that have jaundice, redness and especially tearing, they should be taken to specialized facilities for examination and treatment. Absolutely not self-medication because it can cause complications such as cataracts, corneal ulcers . blindness. Russian doctors say if the child with this disease is detected early and treated promptly, the treatment is very simple.

Associate Professor, Doctor Le Minh Thong - Head of Ophthalmology and Neurology Department, HCMC Eye Hospital:

Adults also suffer

Live tearing does not only happen in children but adults also get sick.There are many causes of congestion, such as trachoma, rhinitis, sinusitis, nasal area injuries . On average, each month in the Department of Cosmetic and Ophthalmic Neurology. receive surgery for about 30 patients with live tears.In adults, the practice of virtue is not effective in the treatment of constipation.Therefore, patients should not go through more than 3 times because the information will lead to dehydration, resulting in poor effectiveness in later surgery.Currently, the optimal treatment is surgery to administer the nasal sac, which means creating a new escape route to help the tears flow back into the nose.
