A. A dog is a mammal, i.e. similar in many ways to you and me. All the things that cause you to have lacrimal sac inflammation will cause the same to your dog. Here are a few examples. 1. Eye infection - goes on to infect the lacrimal sac. 2. Irritants like smoke and dust. 3. Foreign particles in eye or lacrimal sac. 4. Neoplasms. 5. Trauma etc My feeling is that your dog does not have inflammation of the lacrimal sac. My guess is that you are seeing a greenish/yellowish discharge at the canthus of the eye. You are concluding that it is infection of the lacrimal sac. Greenish/yellowish discharge at the canthus of the eye is also present during infections of the eye. The eye usually becomes infected first. Then the infection spreads to the… [cont.]

Why does lacrimal secretion increase substantially when we are upset?
Q. I understand that lacrimal fluid flows from the lacrimal gland positioned on the lateral orbital region of the eye to the excretory lacrimal ducts which transmit tears across the eye surface. These tears (lacrimal fluids) then collect into medial little holes called the lacrimal puncta and then flow into the lacrimal canaliculus to the lacrimal sac and then drain into the nasolacrimal duct. So then, it seems that this flow of lacrimal secretion/fluid increases substantially in the lacrimal gland where it then oozes out to flow in the rest of its path. Am I right in assuming this? So, then, why does being upset/highly emotional increase lacrimal secretion in the lacrimal glands above the eyes?

A. We humans have the most highly developed forebrains of any creature on earth (except maybe dolphins) The result of this is we have emotions... not just primal instincts. We share fear, anger, jeoulosy, survival instinct and so on with our animal cousins, but we also have love, devotion, admiration, resentment, sorrow, and a whole host of complex emotions that are unique to homo sapiens. One of the most common physical side effects of strong emotion is crying. If this sounds completely alien to you then you have no soul.

Corner of my right eye hurts?
Q. I plan on going to the doctors but I am just curious if anyone has any idea of what is wrong before I go. The corner of my right eye hurts when I blink or touch it. It's not the lacrimal sac corner but the other corner. Any ideas?

Will a red eye go away?
Q. I woke up with a red eye. Starting at the Lacrimal Sac and going to the pupil with tiny red lines. Only one eye is red the other one is only a little bit red. Is this because I was watching tv to much and being on a computer for the past two das? Will it go away? I am pretty sure it will.
