Abstract: A device designed for administering a substance, in particular a medicine, to a part of a human or animal body, comprising a housing provided with a reservoir for holding a certain amount of substance. The reservoir includes a dispensing opening, which is closed in the inactive state, for dispensing the substance from the reservoir, as well as dispensing means for dispensing, in use, an amount of substance via the dispensing opening whilst simultaneously releasing the dispensing opening temporarily.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for intraocular administration of a substance, for example a medication, into a human or animal eye by means of a hypodermic needle. Until recently, intravitreal or intraocular injections, by which a substance, and more in particular a medication, is injected into a human or animal eye by means of a hypodermic needle, were only used in exceptional cases. Especially in the treatment of endophtalmitis, an infrequently occurring intraocular inflammation of the eye, antibiotics are often administered intravitreally. The object of the invention is to provide a tool which makes it possible, using one instrument, to keep the eye stationary and at the same time facilitate giving the injection, which will be carried out under identical, reproducible circumstances at all times in that case.
