Resumen : | Using scintigraphy, we have studied the lacrimal drainage from the conjunctival sac of normal subjects and patients who have undergone dacryocystorhinostomy. A mathematical model of drainage was constructed that accurately described the complete activity curves for both groups. The initial rate of drainage was shown to be a relevant parameter to characterize drainage, and it was found to be different from normals to patients, indicating that the lacrimal pump mechanism is affected by dacryocystorhinostomy. |
