Purpose: To evaluate the efficiency and safety profiles of a technique of simultaneous reconstruction of traumatic lacrimal duct obstruction and medial canthus deformity using micro-anchors.
Methods: A retrospective interventional study was performed from 2018 to 2022 on 26 consecutive patients who presented with medial canthal deformities and traumatic nasolacrimal duct obstruction. All patients underwent medial canthoplasty using micro-anchors combined with dacryocystorhinostomy to address the traumatic nasolacrimal duct obstruction.
