Tear duct surgery is a surgical procedure performed when the tube which drains tears into the nose, commonly known as nasolacrimal duct, is blocked. Normally, a hole is created between the tear sac and the inside of the nose during this procedure, which is medically referred to as called a DCR (Dacryocystorhinostomy).
