Can Lattisse Cause Discolor of the White in Eyes?

Can Lattisse Cause Discolor of the White in Eyes?
A: latisse and discoloration

latisse works by causing melanocyte hyperplasia, there are few in your sclera so it shouldn't darken that. just don't get it in your eyes and it won't darken your sclera or iris. the women who get darker iris problems are the ones who are careless and get the product in their eyes, instead of only on the lid margins or base of the lashes, where it is supposed to be carefully applied

Can I Use Betimol Instead of Latisse?

I have the glaucoma medication Betimol. Can I use that in place of Latisse?
A: Betimol vs Latisse

No you may not. Different class of medicine altogether. Betimol does not cause eyelash growth, do not use glaucoma meds interchangiably. Both lower the intraocular pressure, only Latisse (Bimatoprost 0.03%) causes lash growth

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: would not use it

Bimatoprost 0.03% is a formulation for both Latisse and Lumigan. However, Lumigan is used as a drop, while Latisse is brushed on the lash line. I would be more concerned buying from a foreign pharmacy with unclear regulation as to the control and formula of this medicine. Be careful, the drops may contain some additives or preservatives not present in the Allergan version of this drug that passed careful FDA control.
