Endonasal DCR
Endonasal Dacryocystorhinostomy (Endonasal DCR) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure performed to treat blocked tear ducts that cause excessive tearing, recurrent eye infections, and swelling near the inner corner of the eye. At K. B. Haji Bachooali Charitable Ophthalmic and ENT Hospital, Parel, Mumbai, our experienced ENT and ophthalmology specialists work together to provide advanced Endonasal DCR using modern endoscopic techniques for effective and long-lasting relief.
The procedure is recommended for patients with nasolacrimal duct obstruction, chronic dacryocystitis, or persistent watery eyes that do not improve with medications. During the surgery, a nasal endoscope is used to create a new drainage pathway between the tear sac and the nasal cavity, allowing tears to drain naturally without the need for an external skin incision. This approach minimizes scarring, reduces discomfort, and promotes faster recovery.
Before surgery, our specialists conduct a comprehensive evaluation, including a detailed eye and nasal examination, to determine the underlying cause of the blockage and develop a personalized treatment plan. Patients receive complete pre-operative counselling, expert surgical care, and dedicated post-operative follow-up to ensure optimal healing and successful outcomes.
At K. B. Haji Bachooali Charitable Ophthalmic and ENT Hospital, we are committed to delivering compassionate, affordable, and high-quality eye and ENT care. Our goal is to restore normal tear drainage, relieve discomfort, prevent recurrent infections, and improve patients' overall comfort and quality of life through safe and effective Endonasal DCR treatment.
