Embodiment Construction

[0020] In the drawings, the same parts are denoted by the same reference symbols.

[0021] figure 1 The guide 2 of the eye drop dispenser according to the invention is shown. The various features of the guide are advantageously arranged to facilitate application of the eye drop solution in an easily controlled, rapid, safe, and repeatable manner. The guide 2 comprises mounting means formed as an open collar 6 (hereinafter "collar") for clamping the guide 2 to an eye drop dispenser 4 (hereinafter "dispenser"). refer to figure 2 , the collar 6 is adapted to be elastically deformable under manual pressure so that it can be pushed through and fixed detachably to the neck region of the dispenser 4 . The opening of the collar 6 tapers outwards to facilitate correct positioning of the guide 2 before the collar 6 is pushed through the neck of the dispenser 4 . A wall 8 extends downwardly from the periphery of the collar 6 and is configured to sit on a shoulder of the dispenser 4 ...

Abstract

The guide (2) has a positioning member (16) that enables the user to align the eye drop dispenser bottle (4) with the eye to be treated. The guide (2) has a mounting device (6) for detachably mounting the guide (2) on the eye drop dispenser bottle (4) and a mounting device (6) connected to the mounting device (6) through a pair of multipurpose living hinges (12). Two arms (14). The positioning member (16) bridges the two arms (14) and is rotatable between a stowed position and an operative position such that in the operative position the positioning member (16) is positioned between the eye drop dispenser bottle (4) and the eye to be treated between. The guide (2) is also provided with locking means (18, 20) for locking the guide (2) in the operating position.

Description

The latter effect may make it difficult for some users to estimate how far the eye drop dispenser is from the eye to be treated. These issues can cause users to lose confidence in their ability to self-administer eye drops. [0003] Various directors have been proposed that attempt to address these issues. One such guide is show...
