Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change between 1 week, 1, 2, 3 months and 6 months postoperatively of degree of watering

    The degree of watering was evaluated and classified according to the following clinical symptoms: 1 = no epiphora, 2 = minimal epiphora outdoors but only with wind or cold, 3 = troublesome epiphora outdoors but not indoors, 4 = epiphora indoors and outdoors

    Postoperatively 1 week, 1, 2, 3 months, 6 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Change between 1 week, 1, 2, 3 months and 6 months postoperatively of intraoperative complications

    Postoperatively 1 week, 1, 2, 3 months, 6 months

  • Change between 1 week, 1, 2, 3 months and 6 months postoperatively of pain score

    Postoperatively 1 week, 1, 2, 3 months, 6 months

Study Arms (2)

Low temperature plasma ablation with lacrimal duct catheterization

EXPERIMENTAL

The experimental group received low temperature plasma lacrimal duct obstruction ablation combined with lacrimal duct catheterization

Procedure: Low temperature plasma lacrimal duct obstruction ablation combined with lacrimal duct catheterization

YAG lacrimal duct laser combined with lacrimal duct catheter

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Control group received YAG lacrimal duct laser combined with lacrimal duct catheterization

Procedure: YAG lacrimal duct laser combined with lacrimal duct catheter

Interventions

The operation used a tear point dilator to expand the patient's upper and lower tear points, YAG laser/low-temperature plasma knife was used to clear the obstructed site of the patient, and normal saline was used to rinse to ensure the patency of the lacrimal passage. The silicone lacrimal duct drainage tube was selected to put the lacrimal duct drainage tube in the upper and lower lacrimal dots of the patient, and the metal probe was removed after using a crochet, and the drainage tube was moderately pulled upward from the center of the upper and lower lacrimal dots to facilitate the smooth passage of the drainage tube through the whole lacrimal duct and achieve the purpose of dredging the blocked site again. Adjust the length of the drainage tube in the nasal vestibule and leave it in the nasal cavity.
