Tearclear

TearClear Corp. is a clinical-stage ophthalmic pharmaceutical company founded in 2015 that develops a preservative-removing drug delivery platform: a chemical filter built into a conventional multi-dose eye-drop bottle that captures benzalkonium chloride (BAK) at the point of instillation, so the medication stays preserved in the bottle but reaches the ocular surface preservative-free. Its lead candidate TC-002 (latanoprost ophthalmic solution 0.005%) met the primary and all secondary endpoints in the CLEAR Phase 3 pivotal glaucoma trial, with TC-001 (timolol), TC-003 (brimonidine/timolol) and TC-004 (brimonidine) behind it. TearClear ships drug products and delivery hardware, not software: it operates no developer program and publishes no API, SDK or machine-readable contract, and its own corporate domain no longer resolves to a served website.

human only

Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Tearclear the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Tearclear scores 3.7/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 0/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

No API surface

Why this profile is thin

TearClear is a clinical-stage ophthalmic pharmaceutical company whose product is a BAK-removing eye-drop bottle filter and the latanoprost/timolol/brimonidine drugs dispensed through it, so there is no software product to expose an API on; separately, its own domain tearclear.com now answers 403 from an unprovisioned SiteGround default vhost, and no api./developer./docs. subdomain resolves at all.

This is an honest zero, not a gap in our research. Tearclear does not appear to expose an API, so there is nothing here for us to index and nothing for them to fix.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance. Every facet and dimension name is a link: it opens that measurement's page on APIs.io, where the rating runs across the whole catalog — the exact checks that feed it, how every profiled provider distributes on it, and who is at the top of it.

How we profile Tearclear

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Tearclear. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.

Security Posture 1

Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Tearclear, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
