Tear duct 泪管
The tear duct is a small tube near the inside corner of each eye.
It helps carry tears away from the surface of the eye into the nose.
Tears keep your eyes moist and help wash away dust or small things.
If the tear duct gets blocked, the eye can become watery or feel uncomfortable.
Blocked tear ducts can sometimes cause red eyes or lead to an infection.
Most babies are born with working tear ducts, but some may need a little time for their tear ducts to open fully.
泪管是每只眼睛内侧角落里的细小通道。
它帮助把泪水从眼睛表面输送到鼻腔里。
泪水能保持眼睛湿润，还能冲走灰尘和细小异物。
如果泪管被堵住，眼睛可能总是流泪或感觉不适。
堵住的泪管有时会让眼睛变红，也可能引发感染。
大多数婴儿出生时泪管就已通畅，不过有些婴儿需要一段时间泪管才会完全畅通。
