Abstract
Device for administering eye drops from an eye dropper bottle comprising a frame having a first ring member configured to fit around an eye of a person, and a second ring member for supporting the eye dropper bottle while drops are dispensed from the bottle into the eye. The frame includes at least two discrete connecting rods connected to the first and second ring members for maintaining the ring members in a fixed spaced-apart configuration with respect to each other. To reduce the risk of contaminating the drops, the device is configured so that there is no surface of the device which is contactable by drops entering the eye. A handle may be connected to the second ring member for facilitating handling of the device.
