Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The substance is not an eye irritant
Executive summary:

The substance (0.1 mL) was applied to one eye of 9 rabbits. The eye of 3 of these rabbits was washed after application. No signs of irritation except for slight discharge and some very slight redness were observed. The effects were fully reversible after 48 hours in all animals. The substance is not irritating to the eyes.
