Irritant / corrosive response data:
The ocular reactions were assessed at approximately 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after application.
The cornea and the iris were not affected in any animal at any examination timepoint.
Slight conjunctival redness (grade 1) was noted in all animals from 1 hour after application until 48 hours p.a. at the latest.
Slight conjunctival chemosis (grade 1) was noted in all animals only 1 hour after application and in one animal 1 h and 24 hours p.a.
Slight discharge (grade 1) was noted in all animals only 1 hour after application.
The ocular reactions were reversible in all animals within 72 hours after application.
Mean scores calculated for each animal over 24, 48 and 72 hours were 0.0, 0.0 and 0.0 for corneal opacity, 0.0, 0.0 and 0.0 for iris lesions, 0.0, 0.7 and 0.3 fo redness of the conjunctiva and 0.0, 0.3 and 0.0 for chemosis, respectively.
Considering the described ocular reactions as well as the average score for irritation, the test itemis not irritating to eyes under the conditions of this test.
