Figure 1 Diagram of the incisional lines. One incision is done sagittally from the lower lacrimal punctum; the other is done at 5 degrees lateral inclination to the sagittal plane.
Figure 2A With a complete sagittal incision, the vertical portion of the lacrimal canaliculus is interrupted at the halfway point and so the distal part of the canaliculus is not included here.

Figure 4 Figure of the laterally inclined course of the vertical lower lacrimal canaliculus.
