What does EYECUP mean in Scrabble?
noun
A small cup shaped to fit around the eye, used to bathe it with liquid; also a soft rim on an optical instrument that rests against the eye.
In home medicine, an eyecup holds a gentle wash for rinsing dust or irritation from the eye, and the edge is curved to fit the bone around the socket. On binoculars, cameras and microscopes the eyecup is the rubber or plastic ring against which the user presses a brow. It blocks stray light and steadies the view. Some models let the eyecup twist or fold down for people who wear glasses.
