Pro-inflammatory (IL-1b, IL-6, IL-8, IL-17A, IFN-g, and TNF-a) to anti-inflammatory (IL-6, IL-10) cytokine ratios (CR) were calculated. DED signs (corneal and conjunctival staining scores, tear break-up time, Schirmer test, Meibomian gland plugging, tear osmolarity, composite sign severity score) and symptoms [Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI)] were measured.
