EYE IRRITATION TEST IN RABBITS
Procedure: One-tenth milliliter of undiluted test material was placed into the right conjunctival sac of each of 2 male albino rabbits.** After 20 seconds, 1 treated eye was washed with tap water for 1 minute. The treated eye of the other rabbit was not washed. Observations of the cornea, iris and conjunctiva were made with a hand-slit lamp at 1 and 4 hours, and at 1, 2, and 3 days, Fluor-i-strip* stain and a biomicroscope were used at examinations after the day of treatment.
