Abstract
The findings in this case suggest both the lacrimal system and the silicone tube are tolerant to prolonged intubation, as long as the tube had been placed properly with careful observation. Our findings may encourage physicians to consider prolonged intubation for select cases of nasolacrimal duct obstruction.
