Abstract: We report the case of a 2-year-old child who presented with watering and bilateral lacrimal fistulae. Diagnosis was confirmed by Dacryo-Computed tomography. The child underwent surgical treatment for the same. This is the first reported pediatric case with bilateral congenital lacrimal fistula where Dacryo-Computed tomography was used as a diagnostic tool which aided in visualizing the lacrimal fistula and in planning for the precise surgical management. Our case report can act as a reference for clinicians in the management of bilateral congenital lacrimal fistula.
