Will Your Eye Color Go Back to Original Color when Stopping Latisse?

Latisse is sold under a different name, Lumigan, as a treatment for glaucoma.  In this case, the medication is used as a topical eye drop that is instilled directly into the eye and is absorbed by the cornea.  There are cases reported of darkening of the iris with use of Lumigan which would be permanent.  Latisse is not used on the eye itself so there would be no chance for eye color change if used correctly since there would be no absorption by the cornea and no chance for the medication to reach the iris.  Latisse is used on the lids at the root of the eyelashes.  It can cause darkening of the lids, however.  This change would not be permanent if Latisse is discontinued.

The use of Latisse has been reported to darken the iris in very light (blue) colored eyes in a very small percentage of people (per Latisse information). This should be a very rare possibility if the product is used as directed. The information also states that the color change may be permanent.
