So my chin closes his eye when he eats and the vet said my chin has a scratch on his eye (they did the color-test), and I've been given eye-drops with antibiotics (Kloramfenikol) and he's supposed to get them 2-3 times a day for 10 days.

I asked how to do it and they told me to wrap him in a towel to prevent him from moving. They showed how to do it but they were two and I just can't do it. He always manages to get out and when he gets out he's really stressed.

Is it really this difficult or am I doing something wrong? This is terrible. :(
 
I hold them like a football and drop the drop right in the inner corner of the eye, not really "dropping it" but more like drizzle, so the drop just comes out of the bottle into the eye.
