Aim
The aim of this study is to analyse the effects of lacrimal gland botox in patients with watering.
Synopsis
Watering can be due to numerous causes. Botulinum toxin injection in the palpebral lobe of the lacrimal gland can be used effectively for symptomatic epiphora due to lacrimal obstruction and gustatory tearing. Although the beneficial results are temporary, satisfaction in selected patients is high. We highlight the side effects mainly and the ways to avoid them. Botox injection can be a substitute for surgery and the results are satisfactory.
