probably you are suffering from chronic dacryocystitis.it's only treatment is operation. if done from external approach it will leave an ugly scar on face.if done from nasal route it needs a clear passage to pass the instruments and the light source. if there is sms then there may not be enough space to work .hence he has advised you two operations. ok go ahead.

Hello
We need to create a bypass from lacrimal sac to nose
We have to evaluate the nasal bone and If it is bent then we need to proceed as advised by ENT specialist
