SCORING SYSTEM:
Ocular irritation was assessed using the prescribed numerical system:
Cornea
Opacity: degree of density (area most dense taken for reading)
No ulceration or opacity 0
Scattered or diffuse areas of opacity (other than slight dulling of normal lustre), details of iris clearly visible 1
Easily discernible translucent areas, details of iris slightly obscured 2
Nacreous areas, no details of iris visible, size of pupil barely discernible 3
Opaque cornea. iris not discernible through the opacity 4
Iris
Normal 0
Markedly deepened rugae, congestion, swelling, moderate circumcorneal hyperaemia or injection, any of these or combination of any thereof, iris still reacting to light (sluggish reaction is positive) 1
No reaction to light, haemorrhage, gross destruction (any or all of these) 2

Conjunctivae
Redness (refers to the most severe reading of palpebral and bulbar conjunctivae, as compared to the control eye)
Blood vessels normal 0
Some blood vessels definitely hyperaemic (injected) 1
Diffuse, crimson colour, individual vessels not easily discernible 2
Diffuse beefy red 3
Chemosis (lids and/or nictating membranes)
No swelling 0
Any swelling above normal (includes nictating membranes) 1
Obvious swelling with partial eversion of lids 2
Swelling with lids about half-closed 3
Swelling with lids more than half-closed 4

TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE: Hand-slit lamp.

Irritant / corrosive response data:

Corneal opacification was seen in all three animals. Stripping of the epithelial cells from the corneal surface was seen in one animal one hour after, dosing only. No iridial inflammation was observed. A diffuse crimson colouration of the conjunctiva was seen in all three animals and was accompanied in one animal by obvious swelling with partial eversion of the eyelids. The eyes were normal 3 or 7 days after instillation.

Other effects:

There were no signs of toxicity or ill health in any rabbit during the observation period.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

not classified

Remarks:

Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU

Conclusions:

The substance was determined to be not an irritant to the eye.

Executive summary:

An ocular irritation study was performed according to EU method B.5 (GLP study). Eye irritation was assessed by instilling 0.1mL of OS-2200 into one eye of three rabbits. The contralateral eye served as control. The eyes were observed for signs of irritation for 7 days after exposure. Corneal opacity was observed in all three animals. No irritation of the iris occurred. A diffuse crimson discoloration of the tissue surrounding the eye and lining the eyelids (conjunctiva) was noted in all three rabbits. This was accompanied by swelling and partial eversion of the eyelids in one animal. These effects lasted from 3 to 7 days. The test item was determined to be not irritating to eyes according to CLP Regulation.
