Principles of method if other than guideline:
BASF test:
0.05 ml of the undiluted test substance was applied to each one eye of two white Vienna rabbits. The test material was not washed out. The two animals were observed for 8 days and eye irritation was observed on working days. Findings were recorded after 24, 48 and 72 hours as well as on day 6 and at the end of the observation period on day 8. Findings were graded as described in OECD test guideline 405.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test material only led to slight signs of irritation (Grade 1 redness of the conjunctivae in both animals) after 24/48/72 hours. The effects were fully reversible within 6 days. Thus, no classification for eye irritation is necessary.
Executive summary:

In this study, the eye irrtiaiton potential of cyclohexene was investigated. Briefly, 0.05 ml of the undiluted test substance was applied to each one eye of two white Vienna rabbits. The test material was not washed out. The two animals were observed for 8 days and eye irritation was observed on working days. Findings were recorded after 24, 48 and 72 hours as well as on day 6 and at the end of the observation period on day 8. Findings were graded as described in OECD test guideline 405.
