Irritant / corrosive response data:
The treated unrinsed eye showed markedly deepened rugae of the iris from 2nd to 4th day post administration, as well as a moderate conjunctival reddening and slight chemosis 1 h to 7 days post administration.
In the treasted rinsed eye, the alterations were less severe, so that rinsing with water after an accidental ocular contamination is recommended.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: expert judgment
Conclusions:
Substance is irritating the eyes.
Executive summary:

The results of this test indicate that severe alterations are to be expected if rabbit eyes were treated with 100 mg of the compound corresponding to OECD Guideline No 405. Therefor, in accordance with the USA - Interagency Regulatory Liason Group Guideline, no further test is considered necessary.

The phrase "irritant to eyes" is recommended on the basis of the results obtained in this test.
