Irritant / corrosive response data:
In the 100% test article formulation group, conjunctival redness (score 1) and discharge (score 1) were observed in all and 1/3 animals, respectively, at 1 h after application. In the 10% test article formulation group, conjunctival redness (score 1) and discharge (score 1) were observed in all animals at 1 h after application. However, these conjunctival changes in both groups had disappeared completely at 24 h after application. There were no abnormalities in the cornea or iris, and no other ocular changes were observed in either group.
Other effects:
- Other observations: No abnormal clinical signs or abnormalities on body weight were observed in any animal of either group during the observation period.
