Eye irritation
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- eye irritation: in vivo
- Type of information:
- migrated information: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 2007
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: see 'Remark'
- Remarks:
- Guideline study performed under GLP. The source and target substances are isomeric. The structures differ only in the relative position of an alkyl group. The target and source share common structural elements in the same relative positions. The source and target have very similar physicochemical properties and thus have similar expected toxicokinetic behaviour. The substances have similar in silico chemical reactivity and toxicity predictions. This is observed within available in vivo toxicology testing where low level local and systemic toxicity is demonstrated and comparable between target and source. The substances therefore demonstrate chemical similarity.

- A volume of 0.1 ml of the test material, was placed into the conjunctival sac of the right eye, formed by gently pulling the lower lid away from the eyeball. The upper and lower eyelids were held together for about one second immediately after treatment, to prevent loss of the test material, and then released.

SCORING SYSTEM:
The irritation was assessed according to the following numerical scoring system. At each observation, the highest scores given were recorded:
CORNEAL IRRITATION
Opacity: degree of density (area most dense taken for reading)
No ulceration or opacity (may include slight dulling of normal luster) 0
Scattered or diffuse areas of opacity, details of iris clearly visible 1
Easily discernible translucent area, details of iris slightly obscured 2
Nacreous area, no details of iris visible, size of pupil barely discernible 3
Opaque cornea, iris not discernible through the opacity 4
Area of cornea involved:
No ulceration or opacity 0
One quarter or less but not zero 1
Greater than one quarter, but less than half 2
Greater than half, but less than three quarters 3
Greater than three quarters, up to whole area 4
IRIS
Normal 0
Markedly deepened rugae, congestion, swelling, moderate circumcorneal hyperaemia,
or injection, any of these or combination thereof, iris still reacting to light
(sluggish reaction is positive) 1
No reaction to light, hemorrhage, gross destruction (any or all of these) 2
CONJUNCTIVAL IRRITATION
Redness (refers to palpebrae and sclera, excluding cornea and iris):
Blood vessels normal 0
Some blood vessels definitely hyperaemic (injected) 1
Diffuse, crimson color, individual vessels not easily discernible 2
Diffuse beefy red 3
Chemosis (refers to lids and/or nictitating membranes):
No swelling 0
Any swelling above normal (includes nictitating membranes) 1
Obvious swelling with partial eversion of lids 2
Swelling with lids about half closed 3
Swelling with lids more than half closed 4
Discharge:
No discharge (may include small amounts observed in inner canthus of normal animals) 0
Any amount different from normal and/or lacrimation 1
Discharge with moistening of the lids and hairs just adjacent to lids 2
Discharge with moistening of the lids and hairs (considerable area around the eye) 3
TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE: Examination of the eye was facilitated by the use of the light source from a standard ophthalmoscope.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this study the test material is not irritating to the eye.
- Executive summary:
The study was performed to EU Method B.5 an OECD TG 405 under GLP to assess the irritancy potential of the test material to the eye following a single application in the New Zealand White rabbit. A volume of 0.1 ml of the test material was placed into the conjunctival sac of one eye of 3 animals. The other eye remained untreated and was used for control purposes. Assessment of ocular damage/irritation was made approximately 1 hour and 24, 48 and 72 hours following treatment. A single application of the test material to the non-irrigated eye of three rabbits produced no corneal effects, iridial inflammation was noted in one treated eye one hour after treatment only, with minimal to moderate conjunctival irritation noted in all treated eyes one hour after treatment with minimal conjunctival irritation noted in all treated eyes at the 24-hour observation. All treated eyes appeared normal at the 48-hour observation. Under the conditions of this study the test material is not considered to be irritating to the eye.
