With nasolacrimal duct obstruction, constant tearing occurs, which may be accompanied by inflammation in the tear ducts and on the ocular surface. Classification of nasolacrimal duct obstruction implies their division into primary and secondary acquired.1 The latter may be a consequence of systemic cytostatic therapy, as well as radiation exposure in the treatment of patients with cancer, and patients seek medical attention after successful antitumor therapy.2,3 The frequency of chemotherapeutic and radiation agents in the management of patients with tumors has been increasing, and so is the reported frequency of secondary nasolacrimal duct obstruction.4,5 Although the mechanism is unclear, it is presumed to be associated with the contact of a toxic agent with the affected surface.6–9 This can be either through the drug secreted in the tears or reaching the tear ducts systemically from the blood.7,8,10 The tear fluid is a blood ultrafiltrate, where some components can be in higher concentrations than in blood. Once the drugs gain adequate access to the tear ducts, their toxicity on the mucous membranes results in undesirable effects.11,12","PeriodicalId":14338,"journal":{"name":"International Ophthalmology Clinics","volume":"63 3","pages":"137-145"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10227672","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contrast to the smooth convexity of the transition between the lower eyelid and upper cheek seen in children and young adults, older patients can develop a double convex lid-cheek profile due to deepening of the nasojugal fold (“the tear trough”) (Fig. 1). This is typically due to age-related laxity of the supporting tissues of the face, although the process can also be accelerated by conditions associated with periocular inflammation and orbital fat expansion such as thyroid eye disease.1 The uneven contour often contributes to the appearance of dark circles by creating shadow irregularities, resulting in patients seeking a reduction of “eye bags” or “dark circles” which contribute to a tired and aged appearance. The tear trough is a challenging area to treat due to the complexity of the underlying anatomy and its variation between patients, as well as the range of surgical and nonsurgical approaches available.2–7 Furthermore, intervention in this area carries several potential risks, which the clinician must first know how to minimize, and how to treat should they occur. Here, we aim to review the anatomy of the tear trough region, aided by reference to cadaveric anatomic studies in the literature, and to relate these findings to rejuvenation methods, providing an anatomic approach clinical aesthetic lower eyelid treatments.","PeriodicalId":14338,"journal":{"name":"International Ophthalmology Clinics","volume":"63 3","pages":"13-33"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10227673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
