I thought I remembered that someone here's little one had it - it was finally decided to proceed forward with having DDs done.
Can you tell me anything that helped, or I guess anything in general? Im too scared to google anything since I really know nothing about the surgery to start with
Re: tear duct surgery
Everyone has covered it for you.
I was SO nervous about it, but it went off without a hitch. I agree with the others-- the surgery was done and she was back in Momma's arms before I knew it. And once we got home, she carried on as usual, like nothing happened. She hasn't had a even a bit of condensation around her eye (not including tears, of course) or gunk since the surgery.
As anxious as I was, I'm so glad now that we had it done.
ETA: Here's my blog entry about it.

DS had it when he was just over a year old. Honestly, the prep and recovery were much longer than the actual procedure. He was in and out of the operating room in about 15 minutes and we were brought right into recovery with him. We left the hospital at 9:30am and he was back to his usual sunny self by lunch
Good luck, I know it's really scary to have to put LO under but it will be so good for DD.
