Irritant / corrosive response data:
Instillation of the test substance into one eye of each of three rabbits resulted in irritation of the conjunctivae, which consisted of redness, chemosis and/or discharge. Conjunctival irritation had completely resolved within 24 h in one animal and within 48 h in the other two animals. No iridial irritation and corneal opacity were observed. Treatment of the eyes with 2% fluorescein 24 h after test substance instillation revealed no corneal epithelial damage.
Other effects:
No further local or systemic effects were observed.
