We evaluated an atraumatic catheterisation of the lacrimal system in 23 cases under local anaesthesia in adults. By using this method 60% of the eyes with canaliculus stenosis and about 40% of the eyes with inferior lacrimal duct stenosis could be treated successfully. We suggest that lacrimal duct catheterisation under local anaesthesia can be used as a substitute for DCR in selected cases especially in elderly patients giving a good chance of cure without invasive operation.
