    Abstract: This device is mounted on a familiar instrument, the eye glass frame. For positioning to service the eye it is precise every time you put them on. A key slot is mounted to the underside of the brow bar above each eye. The key slots are angled outward in front of the brow bar so that the tip of the eye drop bottle clears the eye safely. The key slots are centered exactly in the center of the eye top to bottom and side to side. The key slots are made of copper wire. The shape of the key slots are triangular at the top to funnel down the eye drop bottle into the key slot where the bottle will rest until the drop is delivered. The bottom half of the glass frame and glass was removed and discarded. This was to provide room for one hand to pull down the lower eye lid while the other hand delivers drops from the bottle.
