Secondary acquired lacrimal duct obstruction (SALDO) is one of the complications of radioiodine therapy. The material was obtained during endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy with revision of Hasner's valve in patients with PANDO (n = 7) in the distal segments of the nasolacrimal duct and in patients with SALDO (n = 7) after radioactive iodine therapy. The material was stained with hemotoxylin and eosin, alcyan blue, and by Masson method. Morphological and morphometric analyses were performed in semi-automatic mode. The results of histochemical staining of sections were translated into points taking into account the area and optical density (chromogenicity). The differences were considered significant at p < 0.05. It was shown that the nasolacrimal duct sclerosis is significantly lower (p = 0.029) in patients with SALDO than in patients with PANDO while fibrosis in the lacrimal sac is the same in patients of the compared groups.
