Can I Use Latisse with Recurring Iritis?

User Avatar
Okie in Edmond
I am considering using Latisse as my eyelashes are thinning with age. However, I do have HLA-B27 associated recurring irits and am very cautious about anything I use on or around my eyes. I tend to flare once every 12 months or so. I am on sulfasalazine, but no other regular meds or optho treatments when my eyes are quiet. Given this, what is your opinion on the use of Latisse for these circumstances? (Yes, I will also ask my Opthamologist but am interested to hear opinions!) Thank you!
