Convergence nystagmus, as defined in this paper, is a rhythmic oscillation in which a slow abduction of the eyes in respect to each other is followed by a quick, and presumably corrective, movement of adduction. It must be an unusual finding, since it has been so little discussed in the literature. The only description of specific cases appears to be that of Furtado (1956), who reported two instances. 1 Kestenbaum (1946) referred to it in connection with nystagmus retractorius in the para-aqueductal syndrome 2 ; Walsh (1957) referred to it with spasms of convergence accompanying pinealomas, 3 and incidental allusions to it may be found in papers dealing with other entities. 4 As Furtado points out, however, it has not been considered a clear-cut entity. The present report is based on the observation of six patients with convergence nystagmus (and one with divergence nystagmus) studied with the particular aim of localizing

One of the most exasperating do-it-your-self problems is administering eye drops. The drops often land on the eyelids or the face. The patient screws up his eye at the critical moment, or the fluid gushes, spurts, or dribbles. Many eye patients are elderly people who live by themselves. They find it hard to locate a skilled and willing neighbor to administer the drops. Anyone with eye disease is likely to have poor vision and thus has double trouble in medicating his eye. It is no secret that children are difficult patients. Yet in this atomic age, this age of electric brains and universal mechanization, we are still messing (the word is well chosen) with an eye-dropper design that antedates the horsecar. This presentation deals with a device that will allow self-administration, make it easier to apply drops to the eyes of children or nervous people, and costs so little that
