SCORING SYSTEM: Method of Draize as described in the Manual "Appraisal of the Study of Chemicals in Foods, Drugs and Cosmetics", published by the Association of Food and Drug Officials of the United States, Business Office, Bureau of Food and Drugs, Texas State Department of Health, Austin 1, Texas, 1959, pp. 49-51. Scale provided below.
Scale for Scoring Ocular Lesions:
Cornea:
(A) Opacity-degree of density (area most dense taken for reading)
No opacity - 0
Scattered or diffuse area, details of iris clearly visible - 1
Easily discernible translucent areas, details of iris slightly obscured - 2
Opalescent areas, no details of iris visible, size of pupil barely discernible - 3
Opaque, iris invisible - 4
(B) Area of cornea involved
One quarter (or less) but not zero - 1
Greater than one quarter but less than half - 2
Greater than half, but less than three quarters - 3
Greater than three quarters, up to whole area - 4
Score equals A x B x 5 Total maximum = 80
Iris:
(A) Values
Normal - 0
Folds above normal, congestion, swelling, circumcorneal injection (any or all of these or combination of any thereof) iris still reacting to light
(sluggish reaction is positive) - 1
No reaction to light, haemorrhage, gross destruction (any or all of these) - 2
Score equals A x 5 Total maximum = 10
Conjunctivae:
(A) Redness (refers to palpebral and bulbar conjunctivae excluding cornea and iris)
Vessels normal - 0
Vessels definitely injected above normal - 1
More diffuse, deeper crimson red, individual vessels not easily discernible - 2
Diffuse beefy red - 3
(B) Chemosis
No swelling - 0
Any swelling above normal (includes nictitating membrane) - 1
Obvious swelling with partial eversion of lids - 2
Swelling with lids about half closed - 3
Swelling with lids about half closed to completely closed - 4
(C) Discharge
No discharge - 0
Any amount different from normal (does not include amounts observed in inner canthus of normal animals) - 1
Discharge with moistening of the lids and hairs just adjacent to lids - 2
Discharge with moistening of the lids and hairs, and considerable area around the eye - 3
Score equals (A + B + C) x 2 Total maximum = 20
The total score for the eye is the sum of all scores obtained from the cornea, iris, and conjunctivae. Total maximum score possible = 110.
TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE: 2% sodium fluorescein and a small-window, ultraviolet, quartz, mercury pencil lamp
Observations were recorded at 30 and 90 minutes, 2, 4, 8, 24, 48, and 72 hours, and daily thereafter up to 8 days. Animals that continued to display effects past the 8-day observation period were observed up to 28 days or until the effects were no longer present.

- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- During the observation period 4 out of 6 rabbits exhibited corneal opacity. All 6 rabbits showed circumcorneal injection of the iris as well as varying degrees of irritation to the conjunctivae. Purulent discharge appeared in 4 out of 6 animals following application of the test article. Severe ocular irritation in the form of pannus was observed in 2 out of 6 animals. Phlyctenar reactions and dendritic vascularization was noted in 1 out of 6 rabbits tested.
All animals tested were negative to sodium fluorescein examination prior to instillation of the test article. Seven days following application of test article, examination was conducted again with sodium fluorescein and 3 of the 6 rabbits showed varying degrees of corneal opacity. Observations were continued beyond the normal 7-day period for a total of 28 days. One of the 6 animals continued to show corneal opacity at 28 days, as well as dendritic vascularization.
See attached file for individual results of each animal and average scores for all animals at all time-points recorded.
