Eye Drop Guide for Wide/Flat Head Bottles, No Blink Reflex, Blue

this was purchased for someone with Parkinson's who found it easy to use with the eye drops. They have two types one for nozzle and one for flat top. The nozzle one works well.

If you need frequent drops putting in your eyes and you need to be able to do this yourself this is a great gadget to get them in easily and directly in to the eye. Totally portable and discreet, we washed it daily in boiling water to keep it clean.

Good idea but hole is too small, the nozzle of my eyedrops wouldn’t fit in it or even rest on top properly

Very disappointed with this item. It's just made of hard plastic and thought it may be the softer/silicone plastic which would be more suitable for moulding around the eye as well as fitting different nozzle types. I use eye drops quite often due to medical conditions and none of the different bottles I have on the go fitted the nozzle hole properly. Once I'd either forced it in or held the bottle in the nozzle hole part, I tipped my head right back and held the bottle straight up as per the instructions and...... absolutely useless! Missed my eye and just had liquid running down my face even more so than when I just apply the drops normally! Not worth wasting money on, only worth a couple of £s at the most even if it did the job. If they'd made it from the softer plastic/silicone I think it would be far more efficient for moulding round different size/shaped eyes as well as having more flexibility for different nozzle types. I don't know whether there's any chance of the manufacturers noticing this!!

Made for purpose

I am awaiting cateract surgery and at a pre-op visit i was prescribed SOME eye drops. It was for 3 types of drops, about 750 instilled over 8 weeks. Gulp. Never having ever used eye drops before, i was faced with 11 doses, in both eyes, for a week. I tried on the first day but, due to shaky hands, found that i could not do it without poking my eyes out. Basically, i could not do it on my own. I looked for 'aids' and spotted this. It allowed me to administer the drops myself, phew. the 3 tyres of drop containers were single dose vial, bottle and tube. the vial and bottle, no probs but, the tube ended up a bit too close to the eye. i fit a loose grommet and it's ok. I probably use more each 'squeeze' but it at least goes in my eye. If the dispenser has a nozzle of some kind, then this is perfect. As i've said, without this i was lost as to how to involve other people, 10/11 times a day for 2 weeks, then 6/7 times for 6 weeks. It was a godsend for me and hopefully to others.

Difficult to use effectively so abandoned it

This is a useful gadget for putting drops in eyes - I purchased it for my aunt who was due to have a cataract operation (she is 92) and needed to be able to put drops in her eyes safely and effectively. This was certainly true for the pre-op drops she was prescribed but when I came to use it for the post op drops I felt the nozzle on the bottles was too long for the gadget and was worried I would damage her eye (s) This may not be the case and a false perception but it may well be worth checking it out prior to purchase. I dropped a star for this reason. Otherwise I would say it is very useful and the item was supplied quickly and efficiently.

Wanted to return, not as expected

molto utile

i USED TO MISS MY EYES ALL THE TIME. WITH THIS GADGET NO MORE WASTED EYE DROPS.

Heads up! There are two different sizes available for this applicator, depending on the type of eye drop bottle you use. I accidentally ordered the wrong one—so make sure to check the product photos carefully to get the right fit. The one I bought (totally my mistake) had an opening that was too small for my ½ fluid ounce Visine bottle. Thankfully, my handy husband came to the rescue. He took it to the garage and worked his magic. It now fits perfectly! The applicator itself is made of hard plastic, but I don’t find it uncomfortable when resting it over my eye. In fact, it’s made giving myself eye drops so much easier. Pro tip: Lie down on your bed when using it and try doing it in a dimly lit room. For me, not seeing the drop coming makes the whole experience less stressful. Now, instead of chasing the drop down my cheek, I actually feel that soothing relief right where I need it—on my red, irritated eye.

This eye drop dispenser is so simple but so effective. Eye drops in both eyes in seconds and no waste. I like that it has no moving parts to break or fiddle with. Be sure to follow the directions and keep both eyes open so you don't know when the drop is coming, which avoids blinking.
