[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Example 1, please refer to Figures 1 to 2 A pediatric eye drop device includes a dropper body 1, a multi-stage dropper 2, and a dropper head 3. The dropper body 1 has a liquid storage chamber inside, and a drop opening is provided on the liquid storage chamber. The dropper body is made of a material that meets the requirements of medical use and is easy to squeeze out the medicine. It is used to control the output of the drop and the ease of operation. The multi-stage dropper 2 is connected to the drop opening, and the end of the multi-stage dropper 2 away from the dropper body 1 is connected to the dropper head 3.

[0028] The graded drip tube 2 includes a large-diameter drip tube 101, a medium-diameter drip tube 102, and a small-diameter drip tube 103 arranged sequentially. The large-diameter drip tube 101 is connected to the drip body 1. The ends of the large-diameter drip tube 101, the medium-diameter drip tube 102, and the small-diameter drip tube 103 away from the drip body 1 are all connected to drip heads 3. The three drip heads 3 on the large-diameter drip tube 101, the medium-diameter drip tube 102, and the small-diameter drip tube 103 gradually decrease in size according to the ratio of the large-diameter drip tube 101, the medium-diameter drip tube 102, and the small-diameter drip tube 103.

[0029] Easy-break points are provided between the large-diameter dropper 101 and the medium-diameter dropper 102, and between the medium-diameter dropper 102 and the small-diameter dropper 103. These are used to separate the medium-diameter dropper 102 from the large-diameter dropper 101 and the small-diameter dropper 103 from the medium-diameter dropper 102, thereby facilitating the selection of different dispensing modes when administering medication.

[0030] Before use, the required eye drops are first filled into the reservoir of the dropper body 1 under the operation that meets medical and health requirements (or the eye drops are packaged using this application during production), and it is ensured that the graded dropper 2 and the dropper head 3 are unobstructed. When using, medical staff or parents select the appropriate dropper diameter. There are three dispensing modes: First, without separation, the liquid is dispensed from the small diameter dropper 103 by default; Second, after separating the small diameter dropper 103 from the medium diameter dropper 102, the liquid is dispensed through the medium diameter dropper 102; Third, after separating the medium diameter dropper 102 from the large diameter dropper 101, the liquid is dispensed through the large diameter dropper 101.

[0031] After selecting the appropriate dropper, medical staff or parents can hold the dropper unit 1 and squeeze it to accurately drop the eye drops into the child's eyes. After use, the entire eye drop device should be disposed of as medical waste.

[0032] The above-mentioned three selectable dispensing modes with different dispensing volumes are designed to suit children of different ages or different dosages. For example, a single squeeze dispenses the required amount of medication, or a single drop completes the instillation process, thereby reducing children's resistance to the instillation. If resistance is high, another method is to use the smallest single dispensing volume, with minimal discomfort, combined with multiple instillation operations, thereby increasing children's acceptance of the instillation process. This makes the use of eye drops in children convenient, safe, and comfortable, improving treatment compliance and efficacy.

[0033] Example 2: Since children tend to close their eyes tightly when receiving eye drops, to further enhance children's acceptance of the eye drop process and improve treatment compliance and effectiveness, please refer to [link to example]. Figures 3 to 6 Based on Embodiment 1, this embodiment further proposes an eye drop auxiliary structure for use with an eye drop device, including an inner cylinder 4, an air bladder core 5, and an air bladder sleeve 6.

[0034] The airbag core 5 is connected to the inside of the inner cylinder 4. The length of the airbag core 5 is shorter than the length of the inner cylinder 4. One end of the airbag core 5 is flush with one end of the inner cylinder 4, and the other end is placed inside the inner cylinder 4. The part of the airbag core 5 shorter than the inner cylinder 4 forms a large head area 7 between itself and the inner wall of the inner cylinder 4. The large head area 7 is used to place the lollipop ball 201. A through hole 8 is provided in the middle of the airbag core 5 for placing the lollipop stick 202. A clip 9 corresponding to the position of the through hole 8 is installed on the side of the airbag away from the large head area 7 to fix the lollipop stick 202.

[0035] The airbag sleeve 6 is connected to the outside of the inner cylinder 4, and two air tubes 10 are symmetrically connected on the side of the airbag sleeve 6 away from the large head area 7 for inflating or deflating the airbag sleeve 6. The other end of the air tube 10 is provided with a sealing cap 11.

[0036] In this embodiment, the device is placed in the mouth of the person who needs to instill eye drops. The airbag sleeve 6 can be inflated or deflated through the trachea 10. For example, the airbag sleeve 6 can be deflated and placed in the mouth. Then, the airbag sleeve 6 can be inflated through the trachea 10, causing it to bulge. The sealing cap 11 can then be closed. At this time, the inflated airbag sleeve 6 makes the entire eye drop auxiliary structure resemble an elliptical ball similar to a hand grenade. With the mouth open, it is not easy for the eyes to close. Using the eye drop device at this time makes it more convenient to instill eye drops. Simply pull down the lower eyelid and then drip the eye drops into the eyelid (it is not recommended to drip eye drops directly into the cornea, as it is more irritating. Dripping from the eyelid avoids direct irritation to the eyeball and makes the eye drops more comfortable).

[0037] Before inserting the eye drop auxiliary structure into the mouth, a lollipop can be placed inside the air bladder core 5 to help improve the child's cooperation. When placing the lollipop, the candy ball 201 should face down and the stick 202 should face up. Insert the stick 202 into the through hole 8 from the large end area 7 until the stick 202 comes out from the other side of the through hole 8 (while ensuring that the candy ball 201 protrudes from the inner cylinder 4). At this time, the stick 202 can be clamped with the clip 9 to fix the lollipop. When inserting the eye drop auxiliary structure into the mouth, place it with one side of the candy ball 201 facing the mouth. The two air tubes 10 can both inflate the air bladder sleeve 6 and act as "handles" for operating the eye drop auxiliary structure. The clean air bladder sleeve 6 can be put into the mouth by stretching the air tubes 10, or the air bladder sleeve 6 can be stretched out of the mouth.

[0038] The purpose of setting up two air tubes 10 is that the symmetrical design makes it easier for the overall operation of the eye drop auxiliary structure to bear force, and the balanced force application is less likely to damage the connection between the air tube 10 and the air bag sleeve 6. Furthermore, the two air tubes 10 can make inflation and deflation more efficient and reduce operation time.

[0039] It should also be added that a connecting structure can be set on the two air tubes 10. For example, a fixing ring 12 can be set on one air tube 10 and a limiting plug 13 that matches the fixing ring 12 can be set on the other air tube 10. When the eye drop auxiliary structure is not in use, the two air tubes 10 can be connected together to facilitate the overall hanging of the eye drop auxiliary structure. The air bag sleeve 6 occupies less space when it is deflated and is easy to store and place.

[0040] It should also be noted that the entire eye drop auxiliary structure can be made of medical-grade, soft, sterile or antibacterial materials, such as flexible medical plastic, medical rubber or medical latex. It should meet the requirements of being lightweight and soft, and having good comfort when ingested. The eye drop auxiliary structure can be for single use or can be reused multiple times through medical-grade cleaning treatments such as washing with water. Together with the eye drop device, it brings greater assistance and convenience to the operation of eye drops.

[0041] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
