Abstract

La présente invention a pour objet des bouchons lacrymaux, ainsi que des méthodes de mise en place de ces dispositifs. Elle concerne un bouchon lacrymal (10) destiné à être inséré dans les canalicules (5) lacrymaux, ce bouchon, éventuellement pourvu d'un conduit axial, comportant sur ses parois externes des éléments flexibles (11) rabattables sur lesdites parois pour permettre l'insertion du bouchon dans le conduit lacrymal et aptes à se redresser une fois le bouchon lacrymal installé, de façon à maintenir ce dernier en place. Elle se rapporte d'une manière générale aux moyens destinés à contrôler le flux de larmes s'écoulant de la surface de l'oeil vers les fosses nasales.
