Dacryocystitis
Nonspecific dacryocystitis generally manifests in two forms: chronic and acute. The chronic form is the most common. Acute dacryocystitis is often an acute attack of chronic dacryocystitis, which is caused by infection with highly virulent bacteria such as streptococci or mixed pneumococcal bacteria. It can occur suddenly without a history of epiphora.
