Irritant / corrosive response data:
Severe corneal damage, severe erythema, chemosis (edema of the bulbar conjunctiva), and discharge of the conjunctivae were observed one, two, three and seven days after application.
It was not specified at what time damage occurred, but there were no signs of remission at seven days after treatment.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 1 (irreversible effects on the eye) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Severe corneal damage was observed. In the conjunctivae, severe erythema, chemosis (edema of the bulbar conjunctiva), and discharge were observed. There were no signs of remission 7 days after treatment.
Executive summary:

In six New Zealand White rabbits, severe erythema, chemosis (edema of the bulbar conjunctiva), and discharge of the conjunctivae were observed one, two, three and seven days after application of 0,1 mL diallylamine into one eye.

It was not specified at what time damage occurred, but there were no signs of remission at seven days after treatment.
