Patient's question:
The tear point is very low, crying when seeing anything touching, and also crying when provoked. Crying frequently without wiping the tears led to dacryocystitis. Now sometimes my eyes can't open, and I feel like there's something foreign in them. Is dacryocystitis definitely surgery?Doctor's answer:
The inflammation of the lacrimal sac is primarily caused by excessive tearing in the eyes. However, the situation you mentioned is due to tears caused by external factors and emotional distress, and it is not related to lacrimal sac inflammation. This condition does not require surgical treatment. If you experience foreign body sensation in your eyes again, it is more likely to be conjunctivitis. It is recommended to use antibiotic eye drops for treatment or visit the hospital promptly for a thorough examination with a slit lamp.
