Abstract
Abstract Congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction results from anomalies of the distal and proximal portions of the canalicular system. Patients frequently present with persistent mucoid discharge from the affected eye. Maldevelopment of the nasolacrimal duct is a rare cause of obstruction. We report a case of complete absence of the intraosseus and membranous portions of the nasolacrimal duct. The patient underwent dacrocystorhinostomy and intubation with Crawford tubes which resulted in successful resolution of the obstruction.
