I got some amazing eyelashes, but my eyelid margin is mottled with clogged oil glands. The opthamologist told me it was indeed latisse. i have to get the chalazion cut out of my eyelid. It was NOT worth it.

A cyst in the eyelid caused by blocked oil glands around the lash follicles. Latisse in the long term has ruined my eyelashes.

Hi Cary1810,
If you haven't had the chalazion "cut out" yet, I recommend that you go to an Ophthalmologist and ask to have the chalazion injected with cortisol. I had a large chalazion, not due to Latisse, a few years ago and it disappeared after the cortisol injection.

I am suffering right now with a chalazion cyst at the moment, I have been using latisse for the past four months. Never had eye problems before. Have to go see a plastic surgeon who specializes in just eyes to have this removed.
The swelling from my eye spread to my temple area, causing server headaches, and server vomiting, fever,The doctor thought I had meningitis, I was so frightened Ended up n the ER two days ago. I love my long eyelashes, but this in NOT worth it. There may be only a few who get clogged oil glands. I never thought it would be me. I am praying he removes this LARGE lump tomorrow. Its been over two weeks and many prescriptions for pain killers ( For my headaches ) and antibiotics for the chalazions..

I have clogged oil glands in on my lower lid and had to have a cyst removed. Now I have clogged oil glands and have to use hot compresses around my eyes to relieve the clogged oil glands. I used latisse because my eyelashes were so blonde. They remained blonde never changed and now I have this issue with my oil glands and lids. Wish I would have know this would have never used this stupid product .....so not worth it!!!
Please excuse my ignorance, but what is chalazion?
