An ophthalmic speculum includes arms, a locking mechanism, and an air-flow system. The arms include a first arm and a second arm. Each arm has a retractor shaped to conform to an eyelid of a pair of eyelids of an eye. The retractors are substantially symmetrical about a lateral axis. The locking mechanism is coupled to the arms. The locking mechanism moves the arms to allow the retractors to retract the pair of eyelids, and fixes the arms into place to maintain retraction of the pair of eyelids. The air-flow system is coupled to at least one arm, and moves air in a region disposed outwardly from a surface of the eye.

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.

A device includes an image capture device directed towards a user's eye and a dispensing mechanism configured to receive an apparatus containing fluid. The image capture device is coupled to a controller that processes images of the user's eye captured by the image capture device to determine when the user's eye has been open for at least a threshold amount of time. An orientation sensor included in the device determines an orientation relative to vertical of the device. When the controller determines that the user's eye has been open for at least a threshold amount of time and that the device has an orientation within a specific range, the dispensing mechanism applies force to the apparatus storing fluid to dispense fluid. One or more sensors in the device detect when fluid has been dispensed.

An eye drop guide for instilling eye drops to an eye includes an eye cup housing and an eye drop dispenser holder. The eye cup housing includes an eye cup at a first end of the eye cup housing configured to be placed over an eye, a hole through the eye cup housing at a second end of the eye cup housing, and a magnet fixed to the eye cup housing at the second end. The eye drop dispenser holder may include a magnet fixed to the eye drop dispenser holder. The magnet in the eye cup housing and the magnet in the eye drop dispenser holder are configured to be attracted to one another so as to removably attach the eye cup housing to the eye drop dispenser holder.

An improved eye drop bottle (10) that improves adherence in the dispensing of eye drops to is claimed. The bottle includes an indentation (45) in the eye drop bottle to facilitate better administration of eye drops. The indentation (45) defines an engagement surface (55) of the bottle (10). The engagement surface (55) straddles the bridge of a user's nose (80), substantially supporting the eye drop bottle (10), such that the reservoir (20) of the bottle (10) does not visually intrude upon the temporal half of the field of view of the user's eye or approach the eye directly along the forward line of sight of the user's eye.

The present invention is a device for holding an ophthalmic bottle of drops and instilling them in a patient's eye. The device rests on the boney lower orbital ridge for stability and correct delivery.

Disclosed herein are improved dispensing devices for facilitating application of eye drops that are ergonomic, promote improved patient adherence, and eliminate the need for extraneous gadgets or facilitating devices that may add additional expense to users. A dispensing device can include a container body for storing drops and a nozzle coupled to the body for dispensing the drops. The device can include one or more channels defined on a surface of the container body and configured to couple, or otherwise mount or abut, to an anatomical structure of a user (such as, for example, a user's nose bridge or eyebrow ridge). The device can also include one or more grip areas defined on the container body and configured to allow a user to generally hold the device and to apply force thereto to dispense drops from the device.

An ocular therapeutics tool including a stabilizer including a hollow body and a base connected to the body, the hollow body extending from the base, and the base being adapted to fit the eye surface, and an injection guide connectable to the stabilizer and adapted to receive an injection needle, wherein the injection guide includes at least one stopper adapted to define the injection depth of a needle inserted into the injection guide. The present application also provides an injection guide. The present application also provides a kit with the tool or the injection guide.

Methods, systems, and device for oxygenated ocular region treatment are provided. For example, a method of ocular region treatment is provided in accordance with various embodiments where an oxygenated material may be applied to an ocular region. The ocular region may include at least corneal tissue, limbal tissue, or ocular adnexal tissue. The oxygenated material may include at least an oxygenated emulsion, an oxygenated ointment, or an oxygenated liquid, which may be supersaturated in some cases. The oxygenated material may include perfluorocarbon, such as perfluorodecalin. The oxygenated material may include at least an antibiotic or an anesthetic in some cases. Some embodiments include an ocular region treatment system or device that may include an eye cup configured to surround an ocular region. A dispenser may be configured to couple with the eye cup and to dispense an oxygenated material to the ocular region may be provided.

In an aspect, an eye drop delivery device is provided and includes a lower periorbital registration portion that is positionable on a recipient's face and an upper bottle alignment portion that is arranged in spaced-apart relationship from the lower periorbital registration portion. The upper bottle alignment portion is configured to receive an eye drop medicament bottle. The upper bottle alignment portion optionally includes a first upper arm and a second upper arm arranged in spaced-apart relationship to permit the placement of the eye drop medicament bottle therebetween. The first and second upper arms define a slot configured to receive the neck ring portion of an eye drop medicament bottle. The slot being sized to complement industry-standard eye drop medicament bottle neck sizing.
