Details on study design:
Protocol: Test article (0.1 ml) was administrated directly to one eye of 6 young adult New Zealand White rabbits, weighing 2 to 3 kg. Ocular scoring of corneal, irridial, and conjuctival lesions with calculations of an ocular irritation score according to Draize et al. (1944). Study duration was 7 days.

Results and discussion

In vivo

Results
Irritation parameter:
overall irritation score
Basis:
mean
Time point:
24 h
Score:
5.2
Reversibility:
fully reversible within: 7 days
Irritant / corrosive response data:
Draize ocular irritation score = 5.2 of 110 @ 24 hours post treatment ; considered minimally irritating. Slight ocular irritation was observed through 72 hours. All scores returned to normal by day 7.
