I have had blocked tear duct surgery on both eyes already, but it is not successful. what do i do now?

The solution really depends upon what the underying problem is. If you have had tear duct surgery "that hasn't worked", you need to go back to your ophthalmologist or an oculoplastic surgeon for re-evaluation and formulation of a plan that will work.
