Tubes were inserted for a mean of 129 days (Std\u2009=\u2009101). Fifty-seven patients (72%) declared they had no complications after surgery, three patients (4%) reported pain after surgery, and 14 patients (17.7%) reported tube extrusion, which occurred 7\u201321 days after surgery. Forty-four patients (56%) reported no recurrence of symptoms, 29 (37%) complained of mild epiphora, and 18 (23%) reported some ocular discharge. Sixty-eight patients (86%) stated that they did not undergo additional surgery, while the remaining 11 (14%) reported undergoing a revision operation for symptom control. Satisfaction rate (1\u20137) mean score reported was 6.15 (Std\u2009=\u20091.6). Sixty-two (78%) reported improved quality of life, while 17 (22%) reported no improvement.
