I got some amazing eyelashes, but my eyelid margin...

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.

Great review?

My Doctor: name not provided

please don't use this ladies. It does clog the oil glands in the lids and you will get cysts in your eyelids and then your eyelashes will fall out. I'm warning you people.

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.

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

Please excuse my ignorance, but what is chalazion?
