Abstract: An eye drop assist apparatus and method for sequentially administering an ocular medication into a patient's eyes. A bottle or vial containing liquid eye drops is supported in a holder. First and second nasal locators extend in opposite directions from the holder. The nasal locators are separated by the pupillary distance (typically 60 mm), with the dispensing tip of the bottle located mid-way between. A person administering eye drops abuts the first nasal locator against the top of the patient's nasal bridge while aligning the tip of the bottle directly over a first eye before squeezing the bottle to forcibly expel one or more drops into the first eye. The person then linearly translates the bottle so that the second nasal locator abuts against the top of the patient's nasal bridge while aligning the tip of the bottle directly over a second eye. The bottle is then squeezed again to forcibly expel drops into the second eye.
