dc.description.abstractPurpose: To define the success of surgical technique used in the treatment of epiphora that is caused by bi-canalicular acquired complete punctum occlusion. Materials and Methods: The study is a retrospective consecutive case series, who underwent canalicular incisional approach for recanalization (CIAFOR) for acquired bi-canalicular punctum occlusions. The authors have used this technique in the cases not possible to perform a punctum dilatation and not possible to determine the punctum location exactly due to severe fibrosis. Functional and anatomical success was evaluated by the absence of epiphora and with lavage at post-operative 6th months. Results: Seven eyes of 5 patients (3 males and 2 females) were included in the study. The ages of the patients were 70, 65, 45, 64, and 70 years, respectively. Current follow-up periods vary between 6 and 23 months. Although functional and anatomical success achieved in all eyes, complication such as accessory punctum observed. Conclusions: CIAFOR seems to be a successful and simple surgical technique to treat acquired total punctum occlusion.en_US
