In this study, our purpose is to evaluate the results of followup time for the patients who were opareted by Kinosian technique and bicanallicular silicone tube intubation. Between January 1996-December 1999 140 eyes of 118 patients who had been operated for chronic dacriosysthitis were evaluated. 96 (81 %) of 118 patients were female and 22 (19 %) were male. Mean age is 39.9 (9-68 year). Postoperative follow-up time was 16.23 months (4-46 months). Postoperatively 122 eyes were controled by canallicular irrigation and lacrimal drainage were found to be patent with a success rate of 87.15 %, in 18 eyes (12.85 %) lacrimal drainage were found to be occluded after saline irrigation. According to these results; Kinosian technique which was supported by silicone tube intubation is a successful procedure.
