Interpretation of results:
other: not irritating
Conclusions:
The overall irritation index of the test chemical was 0.0 after 72 hours. Also the test chemical did not produce any clinical signs of toxicity throughout the examination period of 21 days. Hence, under the test conditions, the test chemical can be concluded to be not irritating to New Zealand White rabbit eyes.
Executive summary:

An ocular irritation study was conducted on New Zealand white rabbits in accordance with OECD 405 to assess the irritation parameter of the test chemical. Three female New Zealand White rabbits were used for the study. In the initial test, One healthy rabbit of body weight 2.11 kg was selected for study after acclimatization. Both eyes of rabbit were examined for any abnormal discharge such as eye irritation, ocular defects or pre-existing corneal injury from eye 24 hours prior to application of test compound. 0.1 gm of the test chemical was applied by gently pulling the eye lids into the conjunctival sac of the rabbit.The lids were then gently held for about one second in order to prevent loss of the material. The other eye which remain untreated, served as a control. The acute irritation to eye conjunctiva, cornea and iris was evaluated at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hoursafter the treatment. The grades of ocular reaction (conjunctiva, cornea and iris) were recorded at each observation. To determine the reversibility of the effect the animal was observed normally for 21 days. Any other lesions in the eye viz pannus, staining were observed and scored accordingly. Examination of reactions was facilitated by use of biomicroscope and hand slit lamp. Individual animal weight before and during the study was observed. The test compound when applied to conjunctival sac of rabbit in the amount of 0.1 gm did not produce any eye irritation or any eye discharge. Furthermore, no other clinical signs were recorded after application of test compound such as cage side activity, pain etc. The result obtained from the initial test was confirmed in additional two animal (body weight ranges 200±gm) of same sex and same dose level. The acute irritation to eye conjunctiva, cornea and iris was evaluated at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hoursafter the treatment. The grades of ocular reaction (conjunctiva, cornea and iris) were recorded at each observation. To determine the reversibility of the effect the animals were observed normally for 21 days. Any other lesions in the eye viz pannus, staining were observed and scored accordingly. Examination of reactions was facilitated by use of biomicroscope and hand slit lamp. The overall irritation index of Test chemical was 0.0 after 72 hours. Also test chemical did not produce any clinical signs of toxicity throughout the examination period of 21 days. Hence, under the test conditions, the test chemical can be concluded to be not irritating to New Zealand White rabbit eyes.

The overall irritation index of Test chemical was 0.0 after 72 hours. Also test chemical did not produce any clinical signs of toxicity throughout the examination period of 21 days. Hence, under the test conditions, the test chemical can be concluded to be not irritating to New Zealand White rabbit eyes.

Ocular irritation study was performed to determine the toxic nature of the test chemical. The study was performed by administering 100 mg of the test chemical to 3 male rabbits. Based on the reported results, the test chemical did not induce ocular irritation in the eyes of 3 male rabbits. Hence the test chemical is likely to be "Non irritating".
