Expert Care for Chronic Tearing and Tear Duct Problems

At New Eyes Oculoplastic Surgery (NEOS), our fellowship-trained oculoplastic surgeons specialize in diagnosing and treating tear duct problems that cause constant tearing, infections, and discomfort. In Las Vegas’ desert climate, blocked tear ducts are especially common and can be frustrating, even creating the paradox of watery eyes in one of the driest regions of the country. When conservative treatments fail, advanced lacrimal system surgery can restore proper tear drainage and improve your comfort and quality of life.

Conditions we treat include:

  • Nasolacrimal duct obstruction (blocked tear ducts)
  • Punctal stenosis (narrow tear openings)
  • Canalicular obstructions
  • Congenital tear duct problems in children
  • Post-traumatic and medication-related tear drainage issues

Many lacrimal system surgeries are covered by insurance when tearing interferes with daily life or causes recurrent infections. We provide thorough documentation and work with your insurance provider to support coverage approval.
