Product Overview
Schirmer Tear Test is a diagnostic test to measure the rate of tear production in canine eyes. Used to diagnose tear deficiency as a contributing factor to ocular surface diseases including: Keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS), Pigmentary keratitis, Indolent corneal ulcers or Exposure keratitis. These unique easy-to-read calibrated strips are conveniently marked for left and right eyes, plus blue dye wicks up the scale to improve visibility in measuring tear production.
Dogs
You can’t tell if a dog has dry eye just by looking at the eyes, but there is a simple way to find out. Your veterinarian can perform a Schirmer Tear Test for dry eyes. Both eyes should be tested because results may be different in each eye. Helps veterinarians rule out KCS (keratoconjunctivitis) in dogs.

Refer to insert in packaging for details.
The Schirmer Tear Test is comprised of a paper strip that is folded and hooked over the lower eyelid. Once in place, the tears begin to "wick" up the filter paper. The distance, in millimeters, that the tears wick up the test strip in one minute, represents the millimeters of tear production. Each eye may be at a different stage in the disease process at the time of examination. Therefore, if one eye tests abnormal, the other eye should also be treated or monitored closely.
