Purpose.
To compare the eyelid pressure between patients with functional nasolacrimal duct obstruction (FNLDO) and normal controls using blepharo-tensiometer, and to evaluate the relationship between eyelid pressure and the outcomes of silicone intubation (SI) in patients with FNLDO.
Study design.
Prospective case-control study.
Methods.
We enrolled 36 eyes of 36 patients with suspected FNLDO who underwent SI and 36 healthy eyes of age-matched controls.
One eye of each patient with FNLDO was randomly selected for analysis.
The eyelid pressure was estimated using a blepharo-tensiometer and compared between the control and FNLDO groups.
The relationship between eyelid pressure and clinical variables was analyzed.
The outcomes of SI were assessed at 6 months after surgery using subjective and objective criteria.
Results.
The eyelid pressure was significantly lower in the FNLDO group than in the control group P=0.008.
In the control group, the eyelid pressure was correlated with age P<0.001 and lower eyelid laxity P=0.016.
In the FNLDO group, the eyelid pressure was only correlated with age P<0.001.
The success rate of SI for FNLDO was 69.4% (25 of 36 eyes).
The eyelid pressure was higher in the surgical success subgroup than in the failure subgroup, although the difference was not statistically significant P=0.08.
Conclusions.
Our results suggest that the eyelid pressure measured using a blepharo-tensiometer has a diagnostic value since it is decreased in patients with FNLDO.
The role of eyelid pressure as a possible predictor of the outcomes of SI for FNLDO should be investigated in further studies.
This trial is registered with KCT0002828.
