Irritant / corrosive response data:
- The treated eye showed severe irritating/corrosive effects already 1 h after treatment with the test item. Therefore, the test item was washed out with 40 mL of 0.9% saline solution.
- Cornea, iris, conjunctivae and chemosis score were determined 1, 24, 48 and 72 h and 7, 14 and 21 days after removal of the test item.
- the eye irritating/corrosive effects were fully reversible within 21 days
