Administering Eye Drops to a Squirming Cat

My cat Pixie has an abscess on her cornea.  I have to give her two different drops (one antibiotic, one antiviral), 4-6 times a day.  When my husband is home, he can hold her and I do the drops, but when I'm by myself, I can't seem to manage.  I need at least one more hand to do this.  Pixie is 13.5 pounds of squirming cat, and she hates to have her head or neck handled.  Thankfully just had her claws trimmed, but she still managed to scratch my face this morning. 

I've tried burrito wrapping her, unsuccessfully.  She gets out of the towel before I finish wrapping her.  I tried kneeling down behind her and cradling her between my legs, pulling her head up and giving the drops...I managed one, but she got away before I could get the first bottle down and the second bottle in my hand.  Someone in another forum suggested using wooden clothes pins to scruff her, then using both hands to hold her and give the drops.  I'm also considering a Thunder Shirt.  Any other ideas? 

If you can get her on your lap with a towel over your legs (for traction for her and to keep her from scratching you) while you're sitting on the couch or in a chair with arm rests, you can tuck her under your arm in the corner of the chair/couch. She won't be able to back up, but she might try escaping over the side.  This is how my husband does it and he's wonderful with eye and nose drops.  The trick is getting her up on you lap to expect something good, so entice her with a treat like a food morsel or a small piece of cheese.  Do it at first when you're not giving her drops. She will associate it the position with a good thing.  When you are going to give her drops, have your supplies ready either on an end table or somewhere where they're easily accessible.  Get your treats for her, too.  Start off with a treat or two, then tuck her in the corner, then administer drops, and follow up with more treats.
