  • Patent number: 10299959
    Abstract: An eyedropper (2, 102) having improved stability is provided for administering a volume of liquid onto the surface of an eye (57). The eyedropper (2, 102) includes a body (4, 104) having a reservoir body (18, 118), a first foot (14, 114), a second foot (16, 116), and a nozzle (26, 126). The nozzle (26, 126) is in fluid communication with the internal cavity (24, 124) of the reservoir body (18, 118) and projecting from an outer surface (20, 120) of the reservoir body (18, 118) between the first and second feet (14, 16, 114, 116). The first and second feet (14, 16, 114, 116) are separated by a distance that is at least equal to the height of the eyedropper (2, 102). In preferred embodiments, the distance between the first and second feet (14, 16, 114, 116) is greater than the height of the reservoir body (18, 118).

  • Publication number: 20170224532
    Abstract: An eyedropper is provided for administering a predetermined volume of liquid onto the surface of an eye. The eyedropper includes a body having a nozzle in fluid communication with the internal cavity of the reservoir body. Projecting from an inner surface of the reservoir body are a first projecting portion having a first contact surface and a second projecting portion having a second contact surface. The first contact surface and the second contact surface are disposed opposite from one another and are spaced apart from one another. In use, the first and second contact surfaces limit the displacement volume of the internal cavity when the eyedropper is squeezed thereby limiting the volume of liquid expelled from the nozzle.
