[blparent] Eyedrops?

[Pickrell, Rebecca M.]

Thank you for this. 
So, I aim the dropper toward her eye using her nose as a guide and then
let gravity do its thing?

I would agree with this technique, just aim the dropper along side of
her nose towards the top of it and the drops will slide right down into
her eye.

Hey Rebecca,

Don't try to get the drops into her eye.  Just aim for the corner of her
eye, near her nose, and they will go in.  It really works!
