Irritant / corrosive response data:
No reactions at cornea or iris were observed in any animal. Slight conjunctival redness (grade 1) was noted in all animals at hour 1 and persisted in one animal until hour 24 after application. Slight conjunctival chemosis (grade 1) was noted in one animal at the 24-hours reading only. In all animals obvious discharge (grade 2) was noted at the 1-hour reading only. Additional findings like injected scleral vessels in a circumscribed or circular area were noted in all animals during the observation period 1 hour after application and persisted in one animal until 48 hours. The ocular reactions were reversible in all animals within 48 hours after application.
