Babies often have discharge and tearing of the eyes. This is because a membrane in the nose is blocked. Nasolacrimal duct occlusion can happen on one or both sides of the nose. Usually, it opens spontaneously at birth. If the membrane does not open by itself in 6-9 months. The chance that it will self-correct is low and treatment will be required.
