The effect of family intervention on electrolacryocystoplasty combined with artificial tube implantation for lacrimal duct obstruction

Objective To study the effect of family intervention on electrolacryocystoplasty combined with artificial tube implantation for lacrimal duct obstruction.Methods A total of 94 patients with lacrimal ducts obstruction were selected.100 eyes were treated with electrolacryocystoplasty combined with artificial tube implantation.These patients were randomly divided into experimental group and control group with 47 cases of 50 eyes in each.The patients in control group received routine nursing,the patients in experimental group were treated with family intervention on the basis of routine nursing,namely family follow-up files were built and follow-up lasted half a year.Results The occurrence rate of artificial tube invalidity and dropping in the experimental group was significantly lower than that in the control group.The complicance,improvement rate and cure rate of the former were higher than those of the latter.Conclusions Family intervention can improve the treatment effects of electrolacryocystoplasty combined with artificial tube implantation.
