Swelling with lids half closed to completely closed 4

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 a considerable area around the eye 3

2. IRIS
Normal 0
Folds above normal, congestion, swelling, circumcorneal 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, haemorrhage, gross destruction (any or all of these) 2

3. CORNEA
Degree of Opacity (most dense area used)
No opacity 0
Scattered or diffuse areas, 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 not discernible through the opacity 4

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
TOTAL SCORE = (E x F) x 5
MAXIMUM TOTAL = 80

TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE: standard ophthalmoscope

Irritant / corrosive response data:
Scattered or diffuse corneal opacity was noted in all treated eyes at the 24, 48 and 72-hour observations.
Iridial inflammation was noted in all treated eyes one hour after treatment and at the 24, 48 and 72-hour observations.
Severe conjunctival irritation was noted in two treated eyes with moderate conjunctival irritation noted in the remaining treated eye one hour after treatment. Moderate conjunctival irritation was noted in all treated eyes at the 24, 48 and 72-hour observations with minimal conjunctival irritation noted at the 7-day observation.
Other effects:
- Lesions and clinical observations: Petechial haemorrhage of the nictitating membrane was noted in all treated eyes at the 24, 48 and 72-hour observations and in two treated eyes at the 7-day observation.
- Ophthalmoscopic findings: Dilation of the pupil, in comparison to the control eye, was noted in two test eyes one hour after treatment and at the 24-hour observation and in all test eyes at the 48-hour observation. The reaction had reversed in all treated eyes by the 72-hour observation.
All treated eyes appeared normal at the 14-day observation.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 2A (irritating to eyes) based on GHS criteria
