Can I Use Latisse Instead of Lumigan for Glaucoma? I am 46 years old and have advanced glaucoma. My doctor has prescribed Lumigan as one of my medications. I have no insurance, and I have to pay out of pocket for all my medications. I have found a foreign pharmacy that sells bimatoprost 0.03%, labeled as Latisse, for $10/bottle (versus $60-70 in U.S. pharmacies). Would it be safe and effective to use the product labeled "Latisse" in place of Lumigan for glaucoma?

A: Latisse is not intended to be used for glaucoma

It's true that bimatoprost is a glaucoma medication, but only your ophthalmologist can tell you if it is appropriate for your type of glaucoma.

In addition, how do you know what you are getting by ordering medications from a foreign pharmacy? I would not recommend either using Latisse for glaucoma or getting it from a foreign pharmacy.

Can I Use Latisse After Cataract Surgery and Restor Lenses? I had cateract surgery and now have the Restor lenses in both my eyes. Is Latisse safe?

A: Latisse & Cataracts

Latisse is safe to use following cataract surgery. I would advise waiting 6 weeks after the procedure to limit any inflammation that it might cause.

Can Timoptic (Timolol) Be Used Instead of Latiisse and Would the Same Effect on Lash Grow Can Timoptic (Timolol) Be Used Instead of Latiisse and Would the Same Effect on Lash Grow

A: Timoptic instead of Latisse? Won't work.

Timoptic is a completely different glaucoma drop and has never had any affect on lash growth. Latisse (Lumigan or Bimatoprost) is an effective enhancer of lashes, both as used cosmetically as Latisse on a brush as well as the glaucoma drop.

	“Trying out Latisse and Hoping for...” -Hi everyone, I've always had very short eyelashes so I finally decided to try out latisse for the first time and see how it goes. Last night was the first time I've used it, what I did was get a short and thin eyeliner makeup brush (the brushes that latisse came with are too big) made sure it was nice and clean, put a drop of latisse into the cap and gently dabbed my brush into the... more
	“Latisse - Not Worth the $$$ - New York” Not only were the results disappointing, but it made my black eyelashes a light/medium brown so they are even less noticeable than before. I am actually going to purchase some dye to try to get them back to black. Not only were there no results, but the base of my lashes where the product is applied became blotchy with tiny broken capillaries. Everyone is different, so it may work... more
	“Just Started Latisse, Covered by my...” I am not sure if it was a mistake but I only paid $50 at the drug store with my medical card. Doctor told me it's cosmetic and wouldn't be covered. I have another 5 refills and can't wait to see results. more
	“Great for Eyebrows Also - Florham...” After over tweezing when I was younger I was left with thin uneven eyebrows. After using on my lashes I brush it over my eyebrows, instantly my eyebrows started to grow back where they were gone for over 30 years. more

First week mild redness in eyes that disappeared the following week. 2nd week threw out the applicators and started using a fine eyeliner brush. Note the biggest con about this product is only the applicators provided by Allergan. They are in my opinion, akin to using a scratchy paintbrush on your eyes and causes product... more
