The Need

Older adults often have trouble self-administering eye drops and medications. It is difficult for them to tilt their heads, keep their eyelids open, and accurately dispense the liquid.

The Project

The team set out to design an eye drop device that makes it easier for users to physically squeeze fluid out of the bottle, reduces the required head tilt, eliminates the need to squeeze with fine motor control, and increases the accuracy of the drop location so users experience fewer failed attempts where the droplet misses the eye.
