Surgical Management of Lacrimal Drainage System

Description

Lacrimal, or tearing, diseases are quite prevalent for ophthalmologists to see. Due to the proximity of the nose and eyes, nasolacrimal illnesses require a multidisciplinary strategy. The surgical procedures for dealing with lacrimal diseases are outlined in detail in this book. The first chapter provides a foundational overview of the lacrimal system and lateral wall of the nose, lacrimal physiology, and imaging in the lacrimal drainage system, and the subsequent chapters detail specific surgical methods for various illnesses. In addition, this guidebook is packed with helpful pictures and infographics for a more immersive reading experience. As with many of these interventions, the underlying conditions may seem trivial, but they profoundly affect the patient's daily life. The author of Lacrimal Drainage Surgery caters to the demands of oculoplastic surgeons, ophthalmologists, residents, and fellows studying these specialized treatments by expanding their understanding of the field.
