Abstract
Self-administering drops can be a daunting task for many patients. The authors describe a method of drop administration that allows a patient to accurately place drops without the need for special devices or touching the eye. With the bottle of drops held upside down, the back of the thumb is rested on the forehead to stabilize the bottle. The bottle tip can be seen over the eye. The other hand retracts the inferior lid to catch the drop. Poor compliance is common and is often caused by difficulties with drop administration. This simple technique may improve compliance.
