Opaque, iris invisible 4
B. Area of cornea involved
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
A X B X 5 Total Maximum = 80
2. Iris
A. Values
Normal 0
Folds above normal, congestion, swelling, circumcorneal injection
(any or all of these or combination of any thereof) iris still reacting
to light (sluggish reaction is positive) 1
No reaction to light, hemorrhage, gross destruction (any or all of these) 2
A X 5 Total Maximum = 10
3. Conjunctivae
A. Redness (refers to palpebral and bulbar conjunctivae excluding cornea and iris)
Vessels normal 0
Vessels definitely injected above normal 1
More diffuse, deeper crimson red, individual vessels not easily discernible 2
Diffuse beefy red 3
B. Chemosis
No swelling 0
Any swelling above normal (includes nictitating membrane) 1
Obvious swelling with partial eversion of lids 2
Swelling with lids about half-closed 3
Swelling with lids about half-closed to completely closed 4
C. Discharge
No discharge 0
Any amount different from normal (does not include small amounts
observed in inner canthus of normal animals) 1
Discharge with moistening of the lids and hairs just adjacent to lids 2
Discharge with moistening of the lids and hairs,
and considerable area around the eye 3
Score (A + B + C) X 2 Total Maximum = 20
Total Maximum Score: 110 represents the sum of all scores obtained for the cornea, iris and conjunctivae
TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE: Ocular irritation was evaluated using a high-intensity white light (Mag Lite) at 1, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-instillation. Fluorescein dye was used at 24 hours to verify the absence of corneal damage. Individual scores were recorded for each animal. In addition to observations of the cornea, iris and conjunctivae, any other observed lesions were noted. The average score for all rabbits at each scoring period was calculated to aid in data interpretation.

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, M-TMP caused conjunctival irritation, which cleared by 72 hours.
- Executive summary:
A primary eye irritation test was conducted with rabbits to determine the potential for M-TMP to produce irritation from a single instillation via the ocular route. Under the conditions of this study, the test substance caused conjunctival irritation which cleared by 72 hours.
One-tenth of a milliliter of the test substance was instilled into the right eye of three healthy rabbits. The left eye remained untreated and served as a control. Ocular irritation was evaluated by the method of Draize et al. (see Table 2).
No corneal opacity or iritis was noted for any treated eye during the study. One hour after test substance instillation, all three treated eyes exhibited conjunctivitis. The overall incidence and severity of irritation decreased thereafter. All animals were free of ocular irritation within 72 hours.
