I just had this procedure done about 4 days ago. I am hopeful that this will resolve the tear duct clogging problem I have had for the last 6 months.

@@brittanyl3909 Please let me know how yours went. I have been putting this off but I am tired of my watery eye.

[@brittanyl3909]

@tanya2926 went very well, my eye stopped watering. Have a stent (small tube) inside the tear duct holes for 3 months. Then they will remove it. Only needed like 2 days off work to recover

My two year old had the probing and it didn't work. Now they want her to get this and I was good with it until he said She might pull it out. How successful is this in two year olds?
