- 1, 24, 48, and 72 h and at 4 and 7 d post-instillation
- Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
- 3 females
- Details on study design:
- - Preparation and selection of animals: Healthy animals (not previously tested) without pre-existing ocular irritation were selected for test. Prior to test initiation, both eyes of a group of animals were examined using a white light source and a fluorescein dye procedure. One drop of 2% ophthalmic fluorescein sodium was instilled into both eyes of each rabbit. The eyes were rinsed with physiological saline (0.9% NaCl) after instillation of the fluorescein and then evaluated for corneal damage using an ultraviolet light source. Prior to test substance instillation, the eyes were re-examined and scored for abnormalities according to the "Scale for Scoring Ocular Lesions."
Instillation:
Prior to instillation of test substance, 2-3 drops of ocular anesthetic (tetracaine hydrochloride ophthalmic solution, 0.5%) were placed into both the treated and control eye of each animalSix hundredths (0.06) grams (equivalent to a volume of 0.1 mL) of the ground test substance was then instilled into the conjunctival sac of the right eye of each rabbit by pulling the lower lid away from the eyeball. The upper and lower lids were then gently held together for about one second before releasing to minimize loss of the test substance. The other eye of each rabbit remained untreated with the test substance and served as a control. The rabbits were then returned to their designated cages.
SCORING SYSTEM: Ocular irritation was evaluated using a high-intensity white light (Mag Lite) in accordance with Draize et. al. The fluorescein dye evaluation procedure described above in preparation and selection of animals section was used in the treated eye at 24 h to verify the absence of corneal damage. Individual scores were recorded for each animal. In addition to observations of the cornea, iris and conjunctivae, any other observed lesions were noted. The average score for all rabbits at each scoring period was calculated to aid in data interpretation.
Classification of Eye Scores
The time interval with the highest mean score (maximum mean total score - MMTS) for all rabbits was used to classify the test substance by the system of Kay and Calandra. The average individually-determined irritation scores for cornea, iris and conjunctiva (redness and chemosis) across 24, 48 and 72 h were calculated for EEC classification.
TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE: hand-slit lamp / biomicroscope / fluorescein.
- One drop of 2% ophthalmic fluorescein sodium was instilled into both eyes of each rabbit. The eyes were rinsed with physiological saline (0.9% NaCl) after instillation of the fluorescein and then evaluated for corneal damage using an ultraviolet light source.

- Executive summary:
A study was conducted to assess the eye irritation potential of the test substance in rabbit according to OECD Guideline 405 and OPPTS 870.2400, in compliance with GLP. A single dose of 0.1 mL test substance was applied into the sac of the right eye produced by pulling the lower eyelid, the left eye being untreated and serving as a control. Prior to instillation, 2-3 drops of ocular anesthetic (Tetracaine Hydrochloride Ophthalmic Solution, 0.5%) were placed into both the treated and control eye of each animal. Ocular irritation was evaluated in accordance with Draize scoring system at 1, 24, 48 and 72 h and at 4 and 7 d post-instillation. Both eyes of a group of animals were examined using a white light source and a fluorescein dye procedure. The average score for all rabbits at each scoring period was calculated to aid in data interpretation. The time intervals with the highest mean score (Maximum Mean Total Score - MMTS) for all rabbits were used to classify the test substance by the system of Kay and Calandra. The average individually determined irritation scores for cornea, iris and conjunctiva (redness and chemosis) were calculated for EEC classification. All animals appeared active and healthy during the study. There were no other signs of gross toxicity, adverse pharmacologic effects, or abnormal behavior. There was no corneal opacity or iritis observed for any treated eye during the study. Within 1 h after test substance instillation, all three treated eyes exhibited minimal conjunctivitis. The overall incidence and severity of irritation decreased gradually with time. All animals were free of ocular irritation by Day 7.The maximum mean total score of test substance was 4.7 at 1 h post-instillation. Under the study conditions, test substance was slightly irritating to the rabbit eye (Durando J, 2011d).
