Conclusions:
Not an irritant
Executive summary:

An eye irritation study was conducted with the test substance on 3 rabbits in a stepwise fashion in accordance with the OPPTS 870.2400 and OECD 405 Guidelines. Initially, one-tenth of a milliliter (0.07 g) of the test substance was instilled in the conjunctival sac of the right eye of one healthy rabbit. The left eye was used as the control. Occular irritaiton was scored using the numerical Draize method. Since irritation cleared within 24 hours and there was no significant irritation observed in the first animal, the test was completed on two additional animals to confirm the result.

There was no iritis observed in any treated eye during the study. Corneal opacity (score of 1) was observed in the treated eye of one rabbit, conjunctival redness (score of 1) and discharge (scores of 1 and/or 2) were observed in the treated eye of three rabbits, and chemosis (scores of 1 and/or 2) was noted in the treated eye of two rabbits. Irritation cleared in the treated eye of one rabbit at 24 hours and in the treated eye of the remaining two rabbits at 48 hours.
