How to relieve lacrimal gland inflammation and unblock the tear duct

Lacrimal gland inflammation treatment via probing refers to lacrimal duct probing. For lacrimal duct probing, a lacrimal probe is typically used. The specific procedure involves injecting lidocaine locally into the lacrimal passage to anesthetize the mucous membrane. Probing is then performed using the probe, which passes through the lower punctum, lacrimal canaliculus, common canaliculus, lacrimal sac, and nasolacrimal duct, opening up any obstructed sections to complete the procedure. It is important to maintain good eye hygiene and follow a light, bland diet.
