Other effects:
Single application of ZK 92136 led to slight to moderate reddening and swelling of the conjunctivae in all animals on administration day. On day 2 (24 h after administration) slight conjunctival reddening was seen in two out of four animals and on day 3, all animals were without findings.
The treatment did not result in any effect on body weight.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

The single administration of Dipivalat into the right eye of male and female rabbits with a volume of 0.1 ml/eye (corresponding to 51.2 -52.4 mg) results in slight to moderate reddening and swelling of the conjunctivae in all animals on administration day. On day 2 (24 h after administration) slight conjunctival reddening was seen in two out of four animals and on day 3, all animals were without findings.

According to the system of evaluation recommended for EU, the mean values of findings relevant for classification at the time-points 24, 48 and 72 hours after administration were 0 for the cornea, iris and conjuntival swelling and 0.2 for conjunctival reddening. Therefore, according to EU classification criteria the test substance is not eye irritating.
