[blparent] {Spam?} can anyone help me?

[Wendy Meuse]

Thank you Judy.  I'll take all the good ideas I can get.  It is amazing how many things you forget when time has passed.  Melissa 
who is the baby is a really good natured baby though.  Well she is until you try to put drops in her eyes.  I have my next door 
neighbor helping me with drops for now, but I have gotten a couple of good ideas from the list.

It has been a long time for me, too, but I seem to remember gently spreading the lids near the inside corner, and a gentle squeeze. 
Another idea, see if there is a med that can be ingested that would treat the same condition.

When our eldest had pinkeye, the pediatrician gave us a liquid med to take internally rather than drops or ointment.

If you are using an eyedropper bottle, the drop-a-time dropper helps. I always preferred the squeeze bottle type drops.

Hi! When my daughter had pinkeye a few months ago I got and I only meant for her. That was very easy to put on my clean finger and 
put in your eye because I knew right where it was. Is there any chance you could switch these eyedrops out for an iOS 8 meant? I'll 
be interested to hear what other people have done.
