Functional metagenomic profile of the lacrimal sac microbial communities in primary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction: The Lacriome paper 2.

This is the first functional metagenomic profile of the lacrimal sac microbiota from patients with primary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction. Functional analysis has provided newer insights into the ecosystem dynamics and strategies of microbial communities inhabiting the lacrimal sac. Further Lacriome studies may provide clues for better understanding of the disease etiopathogenesis.
