- Amount / concentration applied:
- The test material (100 mg) was placed into the right eye of each rabbit by gently pulling the lower lid away from the eyeball to form a cup into which the test material was dropped. The upper and lower eyelids were held
together for about one second immediately after application, to prevent loss of the test material, and then released. - Observation period (in vivo):

Procedure
Immediately before commencement of the test, both eyes of the three provisionally selected test rabbits were examined for evidence of ocular irritation or defect using the light source from a standard ophthalmoscope. Animals showing evidence of ocular lesions were rejected and replaced.
On the day of the test each animal was held firmly but gently until quiet. The test material (100 mg) was placed into the right eye of each rabbit by gently pulling the lower lid away from the eyeball to form a cup into which the test material was dropped. The upper and lower eyelids were held together for about one second immediately after application, to prevent loss of the test material, and then released. The left eye remained untreated and was used for control purposes.
The initial pain reaction was assessed for each animal, immediately after dosing, according to a six point scale.
Assessment of damage/irritation was made 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours following treatment, according to the numerical evaluation developed by Draize J.H. 1959, Association of Food and Drug Officials of the United States, Austin, Texas, "The Appraisal of the Safety of Chemicals in Foods, Drugs and Cosmetics"). Examination of the eye was facilitated by use of the light source from a standard ophthalmoscope.
No evidence of ocular irritation was noted at the 72-hour observation and the study was terminated.
Interpretation of Results
The numerical values corresponding to each animal, tissue and observation time were recorded. The data relating to the conjunctivae were designated by the letters A (redness), B (chemosis) and C (discharge), those relating to the iris designated by the letter D and those relating to the cornea by the letters E (degree of opacity) and F (area of opacity). For each tissue the total score was calculated as follows:
Total score for conjunctivae = (A + B + C) x 2
Total score for iris = D x 5
Total score for cornea = (E x F) x 5
Using the numerical data obtained a modified version of the system described by Kay J.H. and Calandra J.C., J. Soc. Cosmet. Chem., 1962 13 281 - 289 was used to classify the ocular irritancy potential of the test material. This was achieved by adding together the total scores for the cornea, iris and conjunctivae for each of the 1, 24, 48 and 72-hour observations for each rabbit. The group means of the total scores for each observation were calculated. The highest of these group means (the maximum mean score) together with the persistence of the reactions enabled classification of the eye irritancy potential of the test material.

- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- Slight to moderate initial pain was noted following treatment. No adverse corneal or iridial effects were noted.
Moderate conjunctival irritation was noted in two treated eyes one hour after treatment. Minimal conjunctival irritation was noted in one treated eye at this time and in all treated eyes at the 24-hour observation.
All treated eyes appeared normal at the 48-hour observation.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- The test material produced a maximum group mean score of 7.3 and was classified as a minimal irritant (Class 3 on a 1 to 8 scale) to the rabbit eye according to a modified Kay and Calandra scoring system. However the reactions seen were not sufficient to warrant classification.
- Executive summary:
The test material produced a maximum group mean score of 7.3 and was classified as a minimal irritant (Class 3 on a 1 to 8 scale) to the rabbit eye according to a modified Kay and Calandra scoring system. However the reactions seen were not sufficient to warrant classification. The method used followed that described in the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals (1987) No. 405 "Acute Eye Irritation/Corrosion" referenced as method B5 in Annex V of EEC Commission Directive 84/449/EEC.
