Abstract
The ECETOC Task Force carried out a critical evaluation of the evidence for an association between ocular disease and exposure to organophosphorus compounds (OPs). This has been reported in the previous paper in this publication (Stonard et al., 1994). As a result of these deliberations a practical testing strategy was devised for the identification and characterisation of oculotoxicity in animal studies. The details of this strategy will now be described.
