One of my dogs scratched her cornea yesterday when she bonked her head against the coffee table. An emergency trip to the vet yielded a tube of antibiotic ointment that I have to put in her eye twice a day for the next week.
This stuff is specifically for eyes—including the eyes of children and pets. So why is the applicator tip made of metal? Last I checked, eyeballs + metal = danger! Particularly in the case of small beings who are in pain (if they weren’t, they wouldn’t need this stuff in the first place), squirmy, and generally wary of things they don’t understand coming at their eyeballs.
It would be much better—and safer—if the applicator were soft and flexible, like a cannula.
You’ll poke your eye out!
