“Iris Color Change..the Real Deal? - Florida”

Hello from a fellow Butter -- if I liked my eye color (which I don't) I would not use Latisse. It *can* change your eye color, pure and simple. Try to keep it out of oyur eye if you do keep using it.

The color change was noted when the substance was dropped into the eye when treated for glaucoma. If you are going to use Latisse, make sure you follow the directions.

I have awesome beautiful green eyes and naturally long lashes. AND a brain! (yeah) If I would notice only the tiniest little change on my eye color uuummm I would take this liquid, open my toilet seat, and VOILA! I guess your mom never told you this one thing : THINK girl THINK !

The original drug used to treat glaucoma, Lumigan, had possible side effects of changing the color of the iris. This was used in a higher percentage and put directly in the eye twice a day. Latisse is a much smaller percentage and applied on the lid. There was not a single person in all of the clinical trials who had color change of the eyes! It is VERY unlikely that anyone will have that problem using Latisse. Some people may be more sensitive to it ( redness, etc)Im a medical aesthetician for a dermatologist and Ive been using Latisee with great results. I have blue eyes and Im confident they will stay that way :)

From the paper submitted to the FDA for approval. There were 278 volunteers. They did not have to enroll that many patients since the drug had already been approved and used for glaucoma.

to Nseason : My best friend used this crap for 6 months...wanting long lashes like me....now she has problems with her right eye (red, dry vision blurry) I told her to stay away from this stuff...but she did not. Last week when I saw her after 2 weeks not seeing her I noticed her eyes are almost brown (before they where BLUE) YES B L U E ! Something is up with this product! But oh yes, Claudia has longer fuller lashes now....is it worth it ??? Dont think so!! THATS why I wrote what I wrote. There is a reason behind it.

Chica, I don't know what kind of Rat you are smelling or what the hell you are sniffing...this crap has been on the market for more then six months. You need to read the public fillings with the SEC (Security and Exchange Commission), including the discussion under the heading " Risk Factor" in ALLERGAN (the maker of this crap) in their Form 10-K Sep 30,2007....AND Allergans 10- Q for the quarter ended Sep 2008. Like I said before I HAVE LONG lashes ! I wrote about my best Friend. I personally would never ever never not in my wildest shortest eyelash dreams use such a product that has not been tested and retested for at least 3 years. But hey, that's just me....(I do give a damn about my eyes and it's color and my best friend) How about that? If you want long lashes here is a tip : use blinc kiss me mascara. It's tubing not mascare, makes the lashes LONG LONG LONG. Washes off with water and soap, best stuff you could ever ever use. Try it and keep your hands off that crap latisse (EVEN if Broke shields is using it ) woooopie!!

This product when used for it's original intent and dropped INTO the eye as an eyedrop may change iris color. When applied to the lid - 1 drop per lid per night - this does not happen as proven in clinical trials. Great product by the way!

Wow, interesting debate going on here. I didn't know that about blue eyes not being liable to get brown spots. I DO know that someone on another forum claimed that a patient of her's got brown pig. occurring in her blue eyes following admin. as eye drops for glaucoma. However, I only have her word to go on, that the patient previously has blue eyes. Possibly they were hazel with a lot of blue? Interesting. I wonder if that theory would hold for eyes that were a clear green...

My eyes are green hazel and as much as I'd like longer lashes the risk isn't worth it for me... I don't buy something from someone who's bed partner says is safe...LOL Why would you risk your eyes on something like this for longer lashes it's not a perm solution..I can see a cancer patient but young girls in there 20's please how much long term use datais available ...Whats the longest someone has used this.. I would imagine many are elderly and use it for 5-10 years and well,,stop... As long as there's a market they will keep selling this stuff to women... You have options stop taking risks that are not neccasary unless it's a severe problem... I'll wait for a year or ten and see if you can still see...I'm sorry but executives and pharmacuectical companies has lost there moral compass and until the FDA gets there act together I'm weary of anything that can make a buck for anyone....AND YOU SHOULD BE TOO....

I've been using it for one month with fabulous results. (actually saw results after 2 weeks! couldn't believe it) Worth every penny. My eyes are very dark brown so I don't see any color change... Although my Mom has used it and I always thought her eyes were pale brown. Last time I saw her they looked kinda pale green with a brown starburst (whatever) around the iris. It was actually very pretty. Maybe we're imagining it? Does eye color change with age? (she's late 60's) Anyway - her eyes aren't bothering her. She does have some brown discoloration on her lids, so she doesn't apply daily. My eyes were a little irritated the first day or two, but now I have no side effects - other than gloriously long bat-wing lashes. Applying it also forces me to take out my extended-wear contacts :o, so I'm giving my eyes a rest overnight too. Also use on thin ends of brows. If my lashes continue to improve, I'll be beyond thrilled.

Curious about using this product after having laser surgery on one of my eyes. My brows are getting very thin as I age and would love to thicken them back up as well. Any advice?
