I had this procedure with tubes inserted on my right eye done yesterday. It was considered surgery and they put me completely out. I was told originally that it would be a twilight sedation but wasn't the case. The doctor opened the tubes in my eyelids and ran tubes down my nose. I am in no pain but have some lovely bloody yuckiness coming out of my nose. I know, TMI big time! So instead of dabbing tears for the many months, I'm now dabbing my nose! I'm not allowed to blow my nose or I'll blow the tubes out!! I will see the doctor in a week but I think I will be like this for a couple of months. Yikes! No makeup or contacts! Please keep your fingers crossed that this works! Thanks bunches!

@Jayhawk Girl, I have no idea what that is, but take care of yourself and have a speedy recovery.

@Jayhawk Girl I do not know what youhad donebut it sounds very uncomfortable😲 I have no reason to complain about cataracts after hearing about your surgery. I hope everything goes well for you.

@SXMGirl @SeaMaiden this procedure will hopefully stop the constant tearing in my right eye. Most doctors consider this dry eye but this is not what I had. My tears were producing but not flowing properly. Actually, the procedure name sounds really cool but I don't care if I ever do it again.

I wish you fast healing and the best of luck!

@Jayhawk Girl Positive thoughts for healing.

@Jayhawk Girl, thanks for the explanation. I do hope it works and I hope that you are not in any pain.

@Jayhawk Girl The vendor Laura Geller mentions in every show she has a LEAKY EYE.... I never understood what it was until now. I guess she could get it fixed! I read up on your condition and learned a lot about tears I never knew or appreciated until now and how complex the entire tear system is! Now I know why when our eyes tear, you need to blow your nose!
