After his 84-year old father began struggling with needed eye drops due to hand tremors, Robert Behan created a remedy that could change the way eye drops are administered.
Behan, 51, invented what he has branded the Bullseye Dropper and was recently one of two winners at the Innov8 for Health start-up company competition at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital:
