Test for inflammatory dry eye

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are proteolytic enzymes produced by stressed epithelial cells on the ocular surface. MMP-9 is a non-specific marker of inflammatory activity.

Normal values are between 3-41 ng/ml. Ocular surface pathologies such as Dry Eye Disease show elevated levels of MMP-9 in tears. The Inflammadry test identifies elevated levels of MMP-9 in tears.
