Latisse and Vision Correction
I've been using generic Latisse for just a few days now, but I noticed this morning at work that I can see my computer much clearer then usual.

Could it be that Latisse is correcting my vision?

Latisse and Vision
There have been no reports of Latisse or the generic version causing any change in vision. Enjoy the better vision but it probably will not last long. Make sure not to get it in your eyes, there is no need for that in order for it to work on the lashes.

Latisse's generic form is used for treating glaucoma. If you are experiencing improved vision this may be an indication of some other process. Furthermore, you should not be getting significant doses of this in your eyes if it is being applied properly
