Question: This sounds silly..I can't get my eye drops in my eyes.?
I have really dry eyes, so I decided to buy some eye drops. The problem is, no matter how hard I try to hold my eyelids open, I still blink..any tricks or suggestions to get the drops in? I've never had to use them before.

I usually gently pull down on the bottom lid of the eye, then look in a mirror and gently put the eye drops in. Water sticks to wet surfaces, so the drop stays in place until I blink and then it goes into my whole eye. I find it easier than dropping them into the corners, and it works as well. Eye drops can take some getting used to, but with a little practice you'll get them in fine.
