Irritant / corrosive response data:
A slight redness (conjunctivae) was observed in 1/3 animals at the 24 h reading time point, which was fully reversible within 48 hours. No corneal or iridial effects were noted at any observation time point during the study. No further local or systemic toxic effects were observed. The mean cornea, iris, and chemosis scores after 24, 48, and 72 h were 0 for all 3 animals. The mean conjunctivae score after 24, 48 and 72 h of one animal was 0.33; however the other two was 0
