Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
No adverse effects were observed for the iris or corneal damage at any time point in any animal.
Minor conjuncitval irritation (redness) was observed in 4 animals and minor chemosis was observed in 1 animal. All eyes were normal after 1 day.
A single application of test material into the rabbit eye did not produce a positive response according to CLP criteria.
