dc.description.abstractObjective: To evaluate the relationship between age at surgery in patients with congenital lacrimal obstruction and success achieved by them. Methods: We studied 94 medical records of patients diagnosed with congenital lacrimal obstructions, assisted at the oculoplastic sector of the Hospital de Olhos do Paraná, in the period january 2006 to december 2012. For diagnosis and inclusion in the study, the clinical history were made, overall and specific ophthalmologic examination, with the tests: Milder and Observation Test of Fluorescein in the Oropharynx. To determine the type of intervention (probing or intubation) service criteria were used. In the statistical analysis, the chi-square and Student's t test were used. Significance level of 5 % was adopted. Results: When comparing the results by age, regardless of treatment, there was no significant association (p = 0.223) between the rate of improvement and age. Conclusion: In the present study shows, there is no significant difference between the surgical interventions within the age groups addressed.
