Abstract
The lacrimal drainage system constitutes the part of the ocular adnexa where the tear flow drains after production in the lacrimal gland and subsequent to bathing the ocular surface. It is lined by a mucosa that continues that of the conjunctiva. The lacrimal drainage system begins at the two lacrimal puncta of the lid margin that lead via the lacrimal canaliculi into the cavernous lacrimal sac and via the nasolacrimal duct into the nose (Fig. 1).
