1 Year Old: Tears flowing from one eye

2017-03-24 03:59:53
Almost 12-15 tears (Non-Crying) flow from one eye everyday to my 14 months old daughter. We are already doing tear duct massage with fingers for last few months. It is still not resolving. Can you please guide us?

I still believe you are  not doing lacrimal sac massage as written in text book because in my experience it gives hundred percent result in congenital non-canalization of lacrimal duct .
