Definition
A tubular cavity, channel, or fistula (abnormal opening) in the tear duct or lacrimal system.
Etymology
From Greek dakryon (tear) + syrinx (pipe or tube). Syrinx originally meant a musical pipe in Greek, but in medicine it came to mean any tube-like cavity or abnormal channel in the body.
Kelly Says
This describes weird channels that can form in the tear system—they're like unwanted pipes that create shortcuts or dead ends, kind of like discovering a secret tunnel in your eye!
