“Still Happy Years Later, but One Cost to It”

Worth It
Spent: $100 in Lincoln, Nebraska
I'm 47 now, and I had persistent acne until I finally used Accutane about five years ago. It hasn't completely eradicated my acne, but my blemishes are few and far between.
The one downside for me personally is that my eyes got dry and have stayed dry, to this day. I'm sure it's a permanent condition, for which I have to use Restasis.
Had I known this was a possible permanent side effect, I might have simply waited for menopause to clear my skin.
