SCORING SYSTEM:

CORNEA

A Opacity and degree of density (most dense area scored)
No opacity 0
Scattered or diffuse area, details of iris clearly visible 1
Easily discernible translucent areas, details of iris slightly obscured 2
Opalescent areas, no details of iris visible, size of pupil barely discernible 3
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 Maximum possible score = 80


IRIS

A Values
Normal 0
Folds above normal, congestion, swelling, circumcornea 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 Maximum possible score = 10


CONJUNCTIVAE

A Redness (refers to palpebral and bulbar conjunctiva 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

(A + B + C) x 2 Maximum possible score = 20



TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE:
The eye irritation was appraised with a slit-lamp on day 1 and 2 and was scored for each individual rabbit

Irritant / corrosive response data:
The test material was found to cause an extreme irritation when applied to the rabbit eye mucosa.

Any other information on results incl. tables

The test material was found to cause an extreme irritation when applied to the rabbit eye mucosa.

The conjunctival damage was maximum in all animals at both readings.

Corneal and iris damage could be estimated only in less than half of the eyes due to the extreme chemosis.

The test was ended after 48 hours for humane reasons.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 1 (irreversible effects on the eye)
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this experiment the test material was found to cause an extreme irritation when applied to the rabbit eye mucosa.
Executive summary:

Under the conditions of this experiment the test material was found to cause an extreme irritation when applied to the rabbit eye mucosa.

This assessment is based on the fact that conjunctival irritation was maximal at both readings in all animals and that in more than half the cases corneal damage could not be observed due to the extreme chemosis.

The test was ended after the second reading for humane reasons.
