AllerGuide Provides Better Aim Even for The Blind

Filed under: Medicine , Ophthalmology

Whether you want to calm your red raging eyes, or you simply have glaucoma, AllerGuide is your guide. This clever compliance aid was designed by PharmaDesign Inc. (Warren, NJ) for Allergan, to be used with any of its eye care products. This medical gadget has attracted the attention of this year's IDEA awards, and has been selected as a finalist in the Medical & Scientific category.

From the product page at PharmaDesign:

AllerGuide is a combination compliance aid /directional facilitator that attaches to the neck of all Allergan Eye Care products. This universal attachment is designed to rest comfortably around the eye – positioning the bottle at a safe and appropriate distance. After administering a single eye drop, the user then moves an outer compliance dial attached to the neck of the bottle (i.e., Mon 1 – Mon 2 – Mon 3) – which allows the patient to keep track of their daily dosing.
