It is also known as Oleoresin Capsicum. It contains an agent that irritates the eyes to cause tears, pain, and even temporary blindness. Its inflammatory effects cause the eyes to close, taking away vision. This temporary blindness allows people to temporarily disable someone so they can get away.

It is considered non lethal but on rare occasions has resulted in a death.

Pepper spray typically comes in small containers and often disguised but easy to carry in a car or purse. Many contain a UV dye so it will be easy to identify an attacker.
