Irritant / corrosive response data:
Reversibility of any observed effect: Changes fully reversible within 14 days
Other effects:
No symptoms of systemic toxicity were observed in the
animals during the test period and no mortality occurred.


The corneal injury consisted of opacity (maximum grade 1 or
2) and epithelial damage (maximum 25, 50 or 75 % of the
corneal area). As a result of the corneal injury, pannus
(neovascularisation of the cornea) was apparent in one
animal 7 days after instillation.

The corneal injury had resolved within 72 hours, 7 days or
14 days.

Iridial irritation grade 1 was observed in two animals and
had resolved within 48 hours in one animal and within 72
hours in the other animal.

The irritation of the conjunctivae consisted of redness,
chemosis and discharge and had completely resolved within 14
days.

In one animal, reduced elasticity of the eyelids was
observed and had resolved within 15 days.
