Abstract
An implant (110) for detecting at least one analyte (126) in a body fluid, in particular an eye fluid, is proposed. The implant (110) is designed to be implanted in a tissue layer and/or a chamber of an eye of a patient, the implant (110) having a hydrogel matrix (110) with at least one hydrogel (114). The implant (110) also has sensor particles (116) dispersed in the hydrogel matrix (110), the sensor particles (116) having at least one sensor matrix (120) with a sensor matrix material (122) and at least one sensor material (124).
