Abstract
The management of failed probing for congenital nasolacrimal duct obstructi on is given by a panel of authors. Treatment options examined are repeat pr obing, inferior turbinate infracture, closed lacrimal intubation and dacryo cystorhinostomy. There is considerable variation as to the timing of these interventional techniques.
