Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4

Answer to Question 2

4. Place the drop in the conjunctival sac below the eye

Rationale:
The correct method for administering eye drops is to place the drop in the conjunctival sac below the eye. The eye drop should not be placed in the center of the eye. The eye drop should not be placed on the sclera. The head should not be turned to the side when administering eye drops.
