[The tearing eye in newborn infants and young children: good results with short-term conservative therapy].
In this article the authors communicate the results of a short-term conservative treatment for lacrimation in infants with presumed dacryostenosis. The results so far are encouraging and in most cases enable probing of the lacrimal duct to be dispensed with. If the patient fails to respond to the treatment the delay thus caused until probing can be performed is only brief.
