Remarks on result:
other: The chemosis effect was so severe that only 25% of the cornea was observable. The cornea scores are a minimum of the approximated score, however, maximum scores of up to 4 were included in the study report between bracket.

Irritant / corrosive response data:
The chemosis was so severe that only 25% of the cornea and iris were observable. The cornea scores are the minimum score given, however, a maximum score of up to 4 was included in the study report between brackets, indicating that scoring was difficult (see Table 1 and Table 2 under 'Any other information on results incl. tables'). Some corneal effects (score 1 - 2) were observed in 6/6 animals at the 24-, 48-, 72- and 96-hour reading time points. 7 days after instillation, the effects remained the same in 4/6 animals, and had become more severe (score 3) in 2/6 animals. In general, a worsening of the severity was observed in 4/6 animals during the observation period, while it remained the same for 2/6 animals. The highest conjunctivae score of 3 was assigned 6/6 animals at the 24-, 48- and 72-hour reading time points. The severity was reduced in 4/6 animals (score 1 - 2) 7 days after instillation and remained unchanged (score 3) in 2/6 animals. The conjunctivae was irreversible in 6/6 animals. The chemosis was severe (score 3 - 4) in all animals at the 24-, 48- and 72-hour reading time points. 96 hours after instillation, the effect had reduced in severity in 4/6 animals (score 1 - 2) while the severity was unchanged in 2/6 animals (score 3 - 4). At the 7-day reading time point, the chemosis had reversed completely in 4/6 animals, while in 2/6 the effect was still present (score 2 and 4, respectively). In 5/6 animals the iris effects were marked (score 1) from the 24-hour reading time point until the 96-hour reading time point. For 1/6 animals it was not possible to assign an iris score at any reading time point. 7 days after application, the effects has cleared in 3/6 animals, the effects remained marked (score 1) in 1/6, and for 2/6 animals it was not possible to assign an iris score.

** Only 25% of the iris was observable due to severe chemosis; the eye of animal 1

could not be scored at all and the eye of animal 6 could not be socred on day 7.

*** Only 25% of the cornea was observable due to severe chemosis.

The cornea scores are the minimum score given, however, a maximum score

(up to 4) was included in the study report between brackets indicating that scoring was difficult.
