Patent attributes
A tip is provided for a liquid dropper which facilitates formation of a mini drop, a mini drop being a drop smaller than a standard typical drop. A conduit is provided extending from a reservoir of liquid to a tip. The tip provides a location for release of the mini drop. The tip includes a rim surrounding a port with the rim having a particularly thin wall and with the port being particularly narrow. The dimensions of the rim and port facilitate formation of the mini drop. The material forming the tip is flexible and resilient so that should the tip come into contact with sensitive structures, such as an eye of a patient, a potential for injury is minimized. Dispensers featuring the unique tip are disclosed in multiple different embodiments for attachment to a bottle of liquid to be dispensed, or to fit over an existing outlet.
