9 . The eye drop dispenser of claim 8 wherein, when the dispensing body is secured to the bottle, the dispensing body and dispensing tip are dimensioned and configured to dispense a solution from the bottle in a direction substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the bottle.

10 . The eye drop dispenser of claim 8 wherein the cheek rest arm includes a connecting portion that extends out with respect to the dispensing body and the curved portion curves downward from the connecting portion.

11 . The eye drop dispenser of claim 10 wherein the curved portion of the cheek rest arm is contoured to substantially fit against a bottom surface of the cheekbone adjacent a nose of the user when the curved portion of the cheek rest arm is positioned adjacent the cheekbone of the user.

12 . The eye drop dispenser of claim 8 wherein the cheek rest arm is dimensioned and configured such that a positioning of a distal end of the cheek rest portion of the cheek rest arm corresponds to a bottom surface of the bottle when the dispensing body is secured to the bottle and the bottom surface of the bottle is positioned on a flat surface.

13 . The eye drop dispenser of claim 8 wherein the cheek rest arm is dimensioned and configured to operate as a stand for the eye drop dispenser when the dispensing body is secured to the bottle and a bottom surface of the bottle is positioned on a flat surface.

14 . The eye drop dispenser of claim 8 wherein the cheek rest arm is integrally formed as part of the dispensing body.

15 . An eye drop dispenser including:

a squeeze bottle having an internal chamber for holding a solution;

a conduit having a first end and a second end, the second end for inserting into the internal chamber of the squeeze bottle;

a dispensing body having a flow channel extending through the dispensing body from a proximal end to a distal end, the dispensing body configured to be removably secured to a neck of the squeeze bottle with the first end of the conduit fluidly connected to the proximal end of the flow channel and the second end of the conduit inserted into the internal chamber of the squeeze bottle;

a dispensing tip in fluid communication with the distal end of the flow channel of the dispensing body for dispensing solution that flows from the internal chamber of the squeeze bottle through the flow channel and out the dispensing tip, the flow channel and dispensing tip being dimensioned and configured to dispense the solution in a direction substantially perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the squeeze bottle; and

a cheek rest arm having a curved portion configured to be positioned adjacent a cheekbone of a user and a cheek rest portion that is configured to be positioned along a length of a cheek of the user when the curved portion of the cheek rest arm is positioned adjacent the cheekbone of the user,

wherein, when the dispensing body is secured to the neck of the squeeze bottle and the curved portion of the cheek rest arm is positioned adjacent the cheekbone of the user, the dispensing tip is positioned adjacent an eye of the user for dispensing solution into the eye by gravity.

16 . The eye drop dispenser of claim 15 wherein the cheek rest arm is dimensioned and configured such that a positioning of a distal end of the cheek rest portion of the cheek rest arm corresponds to a bottom surface of the squeeze bottle when the bottom surface of the bottle is positioned on a flat surface.
