Various techniques of dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) by an external or endonasal endoscopic approaches are in practice of ophthalmologists and otorhinolaryngologists. The purpose of this paper is to report a case of misplaced intracystic implant in the orbit following external DCR leading to persistence of watering, diplopia and visual diminution. A thirty nine year old female patient presented with recurrent left eye pain, swelling over medial side of the left eye, watering, progressive blurring of vision and diplopia after revision external DCR. The ophthalmology examination revealed bilateral decreased vision, left side restricted extraocular eye movements, sub capsular cataract. The computed tomography dacryocystograph (CT-DCG) revealed tubular foreign body in the extra-conal space abutting the medial rectus with proximal block in the nasolacrimal duct. This is the first reported case of misplaced implant following external DCR in the literature. It may be suggested that patients undergoing intracystic larimal implant shall be on close follow up for such an occurrence later for timely intervention.
