This should be fine, but I recommend following up with your surgeon about their protocol regarding using Latisse after surgery. Viviscal and prp can help regrow lashes as well. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for your inquiry. There is no issue in using Latisse after cataract surgery, and it can be started one to two weeks after surgery.
