Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The test method used was a modification of the French offical method for  testing cosmetics and Toiletries, 1971 & 1973. This method 
(not described  in the publication) after study specific modifications involves the instillation of 0.1 ml or 100 mg undiluted material into the rabbit eye; observations were made at 1h, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 7 days after instillation. 
GLP compliance:
not specified

Results and discussion

In vivo

Results
Irritation parameter:
maximum mean total score (MMTS)
Basis:
other: A maximum score of any of the samples.
Time point:
other: 1h
Score:
7.17
Max. score:
7.17
Reversibility:
fully reversible within: 3 days
Other effects:
The material tested did not provoke pathological lesions of the ocular mucous membrane (such as corneal opacification, ulceration). The observed anomalies were benign, probably of mechanical origin and correspond mainly to congestion of the iris, connjunctival enanthema and slight discharge and/or chemosis.

A maximum score for any of the samples was 7.17 observed at 1 hour after  instillation. 

The scores diminished after this and all scores were 0 by  day 3.
