Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not irritating
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this experiment the test material was found to cause a minimal irritation during the first 24 hours, the irritation effects were fully reversible. The test material is considered to be not irritating to the eye.
Executive summary:

Based on the test results, the test material is considered to be not irritating to the eye.
