Conjuntive redness score
0-Normal
1-Some blood vessels hyperaemic (injected)
2-Diffuse, crimson colour, individual vessels not easily discernible
3-Diffuse beefy red

Chemosis score (swelling)
0-Normal
1-Some swelling above normal
2-Obvious swelling, with partial eversion of lids
3-Swelling, with lids about half closed
4-Swelling, with lids more than half closed

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item is not classified as irritant to the rabbit eye. After application of the test item, slightly changes in the conjunctiva of three rabbits were observed, but these changes were transient.

Executive summary:

The eye irritation potential of the test substance was determined in accordance with the OECD Nº 405 with GLP. VL3 was tested on three New Zealand female White rabbits (0.1ml/eye). Animals were observed at 24h, 48, 72 and 7 days after the test item was applied. The corneal opacity score, the iris score and the conjunctive score were recorded. No corneal opacity or iris damage were observed but a transient pathological changes in the conjunctiva of three rabbits were observed.. However, this effect was fully reversible within 7 days. The substance is not classified according to CLP Regulation since the corneal opacity was <1, the iritis <1, the conjunctival redness <2 and the conjunctival oedema (chemosis) <2, calculated as the mean scores following grading at 24, 48 and 72 hours after instillation of the test material and which fully reverses within an observation period of 7 days.
