If Latisse Gets in Your Eyes Can It Cause Damage?

Latisse is meant to be applied on the top eyelid at the base of your lashes. However, if it gets inside your eyes does not cause any damage or infection to the eyes. Latisse is safe even for people with contact lenses or sensitive eyes. Some of the Latisse side effects include redness, itching and darkening of the eyelid which is reversible once you stop using the product. There are medical conditions that can be worsened by the Latisse product, so please consult your doctor

Latisse is considered to be a relatively safe
drug.If Latisse inadvertently gets in
the eye during application it can cause redness, irritation and itching.This is generally thought to be a relatively
self-limited problem.When larger amounts
of Latisse get in the eye there are reports of blue eyes turning brown.This has occurred when the active ingredient
in Latisse has been used to treat glaucoma. For
these reasons, it’s very important that patients learn the proper application
techniques.When these steps are taken
Latisse is considered to be extremely safe and associated with minimal side
effects.

When you put Latisse on your eyelashes some of it just
naturally gets into your eyes too (whether you realize it or not). The good
news is that it does not harm the eyes. The active ingredient in Latisse
actually started as a medication to use in the eyes to treat glaucoma
and then people realized that patients using that glaucoma treatment has rich,
full eyelashes.The only things that
Latisse can do that would be undesirable would be to change part of the
colorful part of the eye (the iris) to a more brownish color in Blue, Green or
gray eyed people... and even that is rare. Also, people can have an allergy to
the chemicals in Latisse causing redness of the eyes that will get better by
stopping treatment. Latisse will not harm your eyes or effect your vision. The
only precaution is if you do have glaucoma it is best to check with your
ophthalmologist before starting treatment.
