If you are also using other eye drops for high eye pressure like bimatoprost (Lumigan) or latanoprost (Xalatan), using bimatoprost (Latisse) at the same time can affect how much they lower your eye pressure.
Bimatoprost (Latisse) can cause darkening of the color of your eyes and eyelids over time, which may become permanent for brown eye colors. The skin around your eyes might also become darker, but this typically resolves once you stop using the medication.
Bimatoprost (Latisse) can cause hair growth on areas other than your eyelids, particularly on skin that frequently comes in contact with the medication like the cheeks. To avoid this, apply bimatoprost (Latisse) only to the upper eyelid’s base where the eyelashes grow. Wipe away excess solution to prevent it from getting onto other parts of your face or body.
Using bimatoprost (Latisse) can lead to or aggravate existing eye inflammation. Bimatoprost (Latisse) can also cause macular swelling which is responsible for clear vision.
If your lens is damaged or missing or if you already have eye inflammation, you are more likely to experience these issues. If you experience any discomfort or notice changes in your vision while using bimatoprost (Latisse), contact your healthcare provider immediately.
