Eyedrop Squeezer (ODM5, 10 ml size)

I made this after my mum had cataract surgery done on her eyes. The doctor prescribed a specific brand of eyedrops called “ODM5”, made by Horus Pharma. 

Sidenote: 
That stuff is a giant ripoff, because it is basically NaCl solution, aka saline. You can make saline at home by the gallon for pennies instead of having to order it at the local pharmacy for a cool 16 Euros for 10 ml. But I digress. 

The main issue apart from the price is the fact that the bottle design is a complete disaster for people who do not have a lot of grip strength. I needed to squeeze REALLY hard to get anything out of the bottle. I am not a complete weakling but it was hard. 

For someone with reduced grip strength in their dominant hand, it impossible to get a single drop out, so you would need to use your non-dominant hand. Which in turn makes it impossible to output drops “on target” without a lot of spillage. So you need a new bottle shortly. 

The paddles on the sides of this model will significantly reduce the strength needed to get drops out of the bottle. I made it specifically for this bottle. Others with a 17mm neck will probably fit, but I have not verified that. 

The important thing is, this thing is going to save you a LOT of money for refills. It takes roughly 20 minutes to print and costs about 0,20 Euros in PLA.
