摘要：Purpose Congenital double puncta are usually unilateral, and the accessory punctum exists on the medial side in a slit configuration that is distinct from the shape of the normal punctum. We report a case of an unusual case of double lacrimal puncta which the lateral, rather than the medial, punctum was judged to be the accessory punctum. Case summary A 39-year-old male patient with no underlying disease and no ophthalmologic history visited our clinic with right eye epiphora of 2 weeks duration. On slit lamp examination, double puncta were observed in the right lower eyelid and the remaining puncta were normal. On lacrimal syringing test and dacryocystography were performed and revealed incomplete obstruction with partial narrowing of the nasolacrimal duct. Silicone tube intubation was performed through the right lower medial punctum and symptoms improved postoperatively. Conclusions The present case is an unusual case of double lacrimal puncta which has not been reported in Korea. Unlike the previous literature, the lateral, rather than the medial, punctum was judged to be the accessory punctum. Because accessory punctm can be present on the lateral side, it is necessary to distinguish between the accessory punctm and the main punctum through the accurate dacryocystography and lacrimal syringing test for the treatment of the patient.
