    My glaucoma has worsened so these drops were added two months ago. While I was warned about these side effects I decided maintaining my eyesight was worth the risk. My baby blues may alter in pigment but seeing the world clearly is a gift.

      The Latisse site says blue eyes have an absence of pigment so will not darken. Green, hazel and brown eyes can though.

      My dad has been on these drops for years due to glaucoma, haven’t noticed a difference in eye colour (his are blue), his eyes do appear a bit more sunken, but could also just be normal aging.

      I took care of a woman who was on latranoprost for many years. Her blue eyes were stunning, and her lashes too! I’m nervous bc I have high pressure, and family history of glaucoma. I feel like if I need the eye drops my hazel eyes will turn brown. However, as you said, my sight is worth it without a doubt!

    This is really something that should be discussed with any use of prostaglandin analogs. That is why many eye docs never prescribe this type of medication for just one eye.

      I'm curious if you are familiar with Latanaprost causing the lacrimal glands to bulge out? This has started since I began the drops for my glaucoma a couple years ago. Online says it could be age but my skin looks pretty good for 48.

    I was losing eyelashes on one eye only. The eye doctor told me it was a result of getting older and offered no remedy. The dermatologist put me on Latisse and the condition continued to get worse. But it baffled me that it was only on one eye - so I doubted it was age or nutrition or lifestyle. I did a lot of research and discovered that we all have mites on our skin and eyelashes. They eat the dead skin cells. And they LOVE to eat eyelashes which are pure protein. If the mites reproduce too rapidly they can easily overtake the renewing of your lashes. The remedy? Neem oil. ($10 a bottle on one of the popluar retailers). You can't kill the mites, but you can inhibit their reproduction and eventualy they are gone. I put a small amount of neem oil on the lashes each night (too much stings!) and within 5 months not only had my lashes all grown back but they are LONG and beautiful! So long in fact I occasionally have to cut them with tiny scissors like cutting my hair.

      I know this comment is from months ago, but I have a question if you see this! I started using Neem oil on my face for acne spot treatment (-it works wonders.) Using it on your lashes, did you ever have problems with millia (little white bumps) or eye congestion or styes?

    This happened to me about 15 years ago with Latisse. I did not know it was a side effect, but I remember glancing at myself in a workplace mirror and being horrified. I had dark undereye circles and tremendous hollowness, like death approaching. The difference was striking and I just knew it was the lash serum. I stopped that week and never tried it again. It reversed thankfully, I'll keep my more-plump eye sockets over lush lashes..

I had the same experiences with revitalash except that the lashes got significantly longer (had to trim them on occasion). I did get the little white bumps at the base of the lashes on and off, like a clogged follicle.

    I don't believe the risk is low at all. Happened to me -- the change is subtle over time, so it can go unnoticed for a while.

    I have been using a product called "BabeLash" for several years. I find it works well for me. It does take a while to see any results. I use it about 3-4 times week. I tried Latisse once, but really didn't see any more results than with the over the counter product. I have always had dark circles under my eyes, and as I have aged, now I have puffy under eyes too. I haven't seen any diminishing of the puffiness. I can only hope!

    The fat loss side effect is not rare, it actually happens 100% of the time, it’s just that for some it’s just so subtle they wouldn’t notice. But trust me, any serum with prostaglandins, even the synthetic ones sold over the counter, will have a fat loss effect and it’s more pronounced the more you use them. I’m actually disappointed in Dr. Dray not stressing this because again, it’s not a rare side effect and the evidence is out there that it’s not. That redness and hyperpigmentation around the lids that people are experiencing is their fat going away.

    Guys when they say fat loss can happen, they are not kidding! I’m heartbroken and freaking out right now. Let me tell you I’ve only been using grandelash for two weeks, and already I started noticing the skin around my eyes looking textured with fine lines. Its almost like it looks dry, idk def a texture when I’m comparing there wasn’t any two weeks ago. I can feel the orbital bone under and on the sides, wasn’t like this before. It’s noticeable, like my face feels weird, different. Not just touching, when I’m just sitting here typing. I’m freaking out bc I’m 34 but I’ve always passed for much younger. Im proud that women in my family typically look a decade younger- so im really scared now. Please ladies- really consider the risks aren’t just risks! They happen. I knew my dark Asian eyes wouldn’t get any darker, and was ok with eyelid lash line getting darker, but this thinning skin and fat loss- I’m not okay. I wish I had listen to my gut a couple days ago when I started notice the texture- blaming maybe allergie or lack of sleep smh. I’m happy I’ve realized versus the full 3-4 months they say to use it for. I’m just praying that I can regain what I’ve lost. Please please learn from my experience!! 😢

    I was diagnosed with glaucoma about 15 years ago and been on Travatan. It does thicken the lashes and since I was about 42 to now at almost 60 some aging has happened so I don't know if it contributed or not. I do know that it causes darkening more around the eyes and I use concealer to hide that. I failed laser surgery twice and some of the other glaucoma meds caused problems with blood pressure so this one I'm stable on. I had a few years where I was not stable and my left eye lost 50% of my vision completely.

    I've been using Revitalash for over 5 years now, and it's made such a difference to my eyelashes, I had many people comment to say they thought I was wearing falsies. However, I'm very careful in the way I use it. It's the very last thing I do before going to sleep, I use it very sparingly on the top of my eyelashes making sure it doesn't run into my eyes, and then I close my eyes and go to sleep. I am sincerely hoping I don't develop any adverse reaction by using it that way, as I have hooded eyes so a full set of lashes really makes a difference on me.. Personally I love it!

    I tried Revitalash after concerns about dry eye with Latisse, which worked like a miracle . No comparison. Latisse works. Revitalash did nothing . If anything my eyelids became less saggy. Maybe from fat loss. They did turn a reddish brown color, but I actually like it. Permanent eyeshadow.
    I will be more careful not letting it get in my eyes. Directions say only apply on top lid. I was putting it on both. Works great on eyebrows. Grew them back beautifully and darkened too.

    I am very concerned that some OTC lash serums have prescription ingredients. I used a fairly well known "beauty" one, mostly as a lark, as I have heavy lashes and brows. I ended up getting an eyelash growing under my skin and one that popped up above my lashline. I also got some odd brows, but plucking those helped. I am concerned that someone in the production process is making sure this formula is worth the crazy price, since it's supposed to just be glycerin & rose oil plus the usual stabilizers etc.

    How many years can you use Latisse before the fat loss is no longer reversible? I have been using it since ~2018 and I have a more sunken look to my eyes now. If I stop (even though it's been 5 years or so) will I see some reversal? How long does it take for things to "reverse"? I've been using it on both my brows/lashes 2-4x per week. Are the same negative effects seen only using it on brows?

    I noticed an odd loss of fat around my eyes after a year or two of using Grande Lash but I never thought my lash serum was the issue. I remember looking in the mirror and thinking something wasn't right (more than typical aging) especially around my left eye which I sometimes only used Grande Lash because I had uneven lash growth. I also have an issue with my left eye drooping which I never had before. Fortunately that issue is intermittent but I occasionally have to use Upneeq because it bothers me. I'm not a smoker and take very good care of my skin (tretinoin, Vitamin C serums, at home Dermalux Flex MD red light therapy, botox, etc, etc) but nothing helped. No one in my family seems to have issues around their eyes like I do so it's not bad genetics. I loved how my lashes grew but when I heard about the negative side effects it all made sense. I'm so bummed and wish I 'd never used it!
