- Preparation of Corneas
All eyes were macroscopically examined before and after dissection. Only corneas free of damage were used. The cornea from each selected eye was removed leaving a 2 to 3 mm rim of sclera to facilitate handling. The iris and lens were peeled away from the cornea. The isolated corneas were immersed (epithelial side uppermost) in a dish containing HBSS until they were mounted in Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability (BCOP) holders. The anterior and posterior chambers of each BCOP holder were filled with complete Eagle’s minimum essential medium. (MEM) and plugged. The holders were incubated at 32 ± 1 ºC for 60 minutes. At the end of the incubation period each cornea was examined for defects. Only corneas free of damage were used.
Selection of Corneas and Opacity Reading
The medium from both chambers of each holder was replaced with fresh complete MEM. A pre-treatment opacity reading was taken for each cornea using a calibrated opacitometer. The average opacity for all corneas was calculated. Three corneas with opacity values close to the median value of all corneas were allocated to the negative control. Three corneas were also allocated to the substance and three corneas to the positive control item.
Treatment of Corneas
The MEM was removed from the anterior chamber of the BCOP holder and the substance preparation or control items were applied to the cornea. The holders were gently tilted back and forth to ensure a uniform application of the item over the entire cornea. Each holder was incubated, anterior chamber uppermost, at 32 ± 1 ºC for 240 minutes. At the end of the exposure period the substance preparation and control items were removed from the anterior chamber and the cornea was rinsed three times with fresh complete MEM containing phenol red before a final rinse with complete MEM. The anterior and posterior chambers were refilled with fresh complete MEM. A post treatment opacity reading was taken and each cornea was visually observed.
Application of Sodium Fluorescein
Following the opacity measurement the permeability of the corneas to sodium fluorescein was evaluated. The medium from the anterior chamber was removed and replaced with 1 mL of sodium fluorescein solution (5 mg/mL). The dosing holes were plugged and the holders incubated, anterior chamber uppermost, at 32 ± 1 ºC for 90 minutes.
Permeability Determinations
After incubation the medium in the posterior chamber of each holder was decanted and retained. 360 μL of medium representing each cornea was applied to a designated well on a 96 well plate and the optical density at 492 nm (OD492) was measured. If values greater than 2.500 OD492 were obtained a 1 in 5 dilution of the medium in complete MEM was performed and the measurement repeated. The modified value was multiplied by 5 to reflect the 1 in 5 dilution.
Histopathology
The corneas were retained after testing for possible conduct of histopathology. Each cornea was placed into a pre-labelled tissue cassette fitted with a histology sponge to protect the endothelial surface. The cassette was immersed in 10% neutral buffered formalin.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other:
- Remarks:
- Not a eye irritant in accordance with EU CLP (EC no 1272/2008 and its amendments)
- Conclusions:
- The substance was considered not to be an ocular corrosive or severe irritant based on the OECD TG 437
- Executive summary:
A study was performed to assess the ocular irritancy potential of the substance to the isolated bovine cornea. The method was designed to be compatible with OECD TG 437 and GLP principles. The substance was applied at a concentration of 20% w/v in 0.9% w/v sodium chloride solution for 240 minutes. Negative and positive control items were tested concurrently. The two endpoints, decreased light transmission through the cornea (opacity) and increased passage of sodium fluorescein dye through the cornea (permeability) were combined in an empirically derived formula to generate an In Vitro Irritancy Score (IVIS). A substance that induces an In Vitro Irritancy Score ≥ 55.1 is defined as an ocular corrosive or severe irritant.
Results showed that the in vitro irritant score were 1.7, 3.2 and 73.6 for the substance, negative control and positive control, respectively.
In conclusion, the substance was considered not to be an ocular corrosive or severe irritant.
