Eyedrop Insertion? It’s in the Sac!

Many of my patients who use eyedrops have had great success with the following technique. While sitting or standing (preferably in front of a mirror), they gently pull the lower lid down, then put the specified number of drops in the sac of the conjunctiva that is formed; afterwards, they tilt their head back a bit. I find this method works with children also.
