Tiny White Bump on Eye Ball and Eye is Bloodshot, is This Normal? (photo)

Question8745Jul 28, 2012
I have been Using latisse for 3 weeks now. My right eye has started to get slightly uncomfortable. There is a tiny white dot (maybe raised, I cant tell) on my eye ball itself on the outside of where my eye coloring starts and the white part of the eye has started to become bloodshot around that area. Sometimes I feel a pressure or sensation that something is in my eye. Slightly itchy. gets worse when eye feels dry. Should I be worried about my eye?

Yes, you will have to see a licensed doctor to obtain a prescription for Latisse, first undergoing an examination and review of your medical history to make sure the product is safe for you.

No, it is just coincidental. Eye twitching or Ocular Myokymia is idiopathic, that is, no one knows why it happens. But it is thought to be related to increased stress, increased caffeine intake, or lack of sleep. So if you can modulate your behaviors to change those variables, it might help.

Leave the Latisse home for 11 days. Not using it for that brief of a time period will not affect your lashes.

Dear TLR, The eyelashes should grow back to where they were before.  You could try Latisse which may help speed up the progress to get them to grow more quickly. Unfortunately, as time goes on, our lashes do get thinner and more sparse.
