My glaucoma has worsened so these drops were added two months ago. While I was warned about these side effects I decided maintaining my eyesight was worth the risk. My baby blues may alter in pigment but seeing the world clearly is a gift.

[@milagrosdejesus1871]

Hope you feel better.

[@jessabeauty917]

The Latisse site says blue eyes have an absence of pigment so will not darken. Green, hazel and brown eyes can though.

[@Deranged316]

My dad has been on these drops for years due to glaucoma, haven’t noticed a difference in eye colour (his are blue), his eyes do appear a bit more sunken, but could also just be normal aging.

[@belovedobserver]

I took care of a woman who was on latranoprost for many years. Her blue eyes were stunning, and her lashes too! I’m nervous bc I have high pressure, and family history of glaucoma. I feel like if I need the eye drops my hazel eyes will turn brown. However, as you said, my sight is worth it without a doubt!

[@sandramendoza6297]

I also have glaucoma- diagnosed at 50 (I’m 59 now) and am on 3 different drops. I have very sunken eyes and discolored eyelids and very red eyes but like you maintaining my vision takes priority over this cosmetic issue.

[@DoctorEyeHealth]

This is really something that should be discussed with any use of prostaglandin analogs. That is why many eye docs never prescribe this type of medication for just one eye.

[@ellek8703]

I'm curious if you are familiar with Latanaprost causing the lacrimal glands to bulge out? This has started since I began the drops for my glaucoma a couple years ago. Online says it could be age but my skin looks pretty good for 48.

[@kellyholtman8403]

I was losing eyelashes on one eye only. The eye doctor told me it was a result of getting older and offered no remedy. The dermatologist put me on Latisse and the condition continued to get worse. But it baffled me that it was only on one eye - so I doubted it was age or nutrition or lifestyle. I did a lot of research and discovered that we all have mites on our skin and eyelashes. They eat the dead skin cells. And they LOVE to eat eyelashes which are pure protein. If the mites reproduce too rapidly they can easily overtake the renewing of your lashes. The remedy? Neem oil. ($10 a bottle on one of the popluar retailers). You can't kill the mites, but you can inhibit their reproduction and eventualy they are gone. I put a small amount of neem oil on the lashes each night (too much stings!) and within 5 months not only had my lashes all grown back but they are LONG and beautiful! So long in fact I occasionally have to cut them with tiny scissors like cutting my hair.

[@ShannonJAnderson22]

I know this comment is from months ago, but I have a question if you see this! I started using Neem oil on my face for acne spot treatment (-it works wonders.) Using it on your lashes, did you ever have problems with millia (little white bumps) or eye congestion or styes?

[@elettramia6380]

@@ShannonJAnderson22I’ve been using tea tree oils mixed into my face wash, most of the hygiene products to help reduce the mites have the active ingredient tea tree oil, oddly enough I have one eye that grows less eyelashes on the bottom and feels like they’re sticking together to my top eyelashes a lot, which apparently can be related to the mites

Guys when they say fat loss can happen, they are not kidding! I’m heartbroken and freaking out right now. Let me tell you I’ve only been using grandelash for two weeks, and already I started noticing the skin around my eyes looking textured with fine lines. Its almost like it looks dry, idk def a texture when I’m comparing there wasn’t any two weeks ago. I can feel the orbital bone under and on the sides, wasn’t like this before. It’s noticeable, like my face feels weird, different. Not just touching, when I’m just sitting here typing. I’m freaking out bc I’m 34 but I’ve always passed for much younger. Im proud that women in my family typically look a decade younger- so im really scared now. Please ladies- really consider the risks aren’t just risks! They happen. I knew my dark Asian eyes wouldn’t get any darker, and was ok with eyelid lash line getting darker, but this thinning skin and fat loss- I’m not okay. I wish I had listen to my gut a couple days ago when I started notice the texture- blaming maybe allergie or lack of sleep smh. I’m happy I’ve realized versus the full 3-4 months they say to use it for. I’m just praying that I can regain what I’ve lost. Please please learn from my experience!! 😢

[@forreal1276]

Been using it as well. However when I stop, I notice a significant lash fall. If I keep using it it causes bumps on my lid, kind of like a tiny blister. I started using it on eyebrows instead which works great.

[@melissaboyce3942]

I’ve been using the Ordinary for a few months on lashes and brows. I do see a slight improvement in length but not in thickness or any new baby hairs re-sprouting. I had the same experiences with revitalash except that the lashes got significantly longer (had to trim them on occasion). I did get the little white bumps at the base of the lashes on and off, like a clogged follicle.

[@mariacamilamoreno2621]

[@jenniferannfox2316]

I was diagnosed with glaucoma about 15 years ago and been on Travatan. It does thicken the lashes and since I was about 42 to now at almost 60 some aging has happened so I don't know if it contributed or not. I do know that it causes darkening more around the eyes and I use concealer to hide that. I failed laser surgery twice and some of the other glaucoma meds caused problems with blood pressure so this one I'm stable on. I had a few years where I was not stable and my left eye lost 50% of my vision completely.

I have been using a product called "BabeLash" for several years. I find it works well for me. It does take a while to see any results. I use it about 3-4 times week. I tried Latisse once, but really didn't see any more results than with the over the counter product. I have always had dark circles under my eyes, and as I have aged, now I have puffy under eyes too. I haven't seen any diminishing of the puffiness. I can only hope!

[@hellocococakes]

I don't believe the risk is low at all. Happened to me -- the change is subtle over time, so it can go unnoticed for a while. Everyone I've seen who uses lash serum with prostaglandins has it from what I've noticed (unless they just started). Some don't believe it, but it's obvious. Be careful! I say avoid it.

I take it for Glaucoma a few years ago. Since then my lacrimal glands have dropped down. I'm 48, my skin isn't as aged as some, so I find it hard to think it's from age. None of my doctors can pinpoint it. They offered a cat scan. I've had many so I'm reluctant to get another one. Anyone else see their lacrimal glands pop out after Latanaprost use?

I have been using Castor oil on my lashes for several months and am happy with results.

[@linh5143]

How do you apply the castor oil?

[@Bebedollie]

Yes natural is best

[@SniperAsian]

Castor Oil can help length retention but it is not the same as prostaglandin. That ingredient actually makes your lashes continue the active stage so they continue to grow. The length of your lashes is biological and unfortunately an oil is not going to alter that.

any opinion on the ordinary's multi peptide lash and brow serum?

[@montananerd8244]

I am very concerned that some OTC lash serums have prescription ingredients. I used a fairly well known "beauty" one, mostly as a lark, as I have heavy lashes and brows. I ended up getting an eyelash growing under my skin and one that popped up above my lashline. I also got some odd brows, but plucking those helped. I am concerned that someone in the production process is making sure this formula is worth the crazy price, since it's supposed to just be glycerin & rose oil plus the usual stabilizers etc.

[@sindhusanthanakrishnan5465]

Which brand is this? I'd be curious to see if they use specific versions of the ingredient name that makes it difficult to detect

I noticed an odd loss of fat around my eyes after a year or two of using Grande Lash but I never thought my lash serum was the issue. I remember looking in the mirror and thinking something wasn't right (more than typical aging) especially around my left eye which I sometimes only used Grande Lash because I had uneven lash growth. I also have an issue with my left eye drooping which I never had before. Fortunately that issue is intermittent but I occasionally have to use Upneeq because it bothers me. I'm not a smoker and take very good care of my skin (tretinoin, Vitamin C serums, at home Dermalux Flex MD red light therapy, botox, etc, etc) but nothing helped. No one in my family seems to have issues around their eyes like I do so it's not bad genetics. I loved how my lashes grew but when I heard about the negative side effects it all made sense. I'm so bummed and wish I 'd never used it!

I'm at that age when things change a lot. I noticed that my eyelashes were really small and stumpy. After some research I bought Revitalash serum. It's the most expensive beauty products I've ever bought. Yes, it's sensitising, yes it has side effects, but on the flip side, my lashes are better than ever and it gives me a little boost. It's one thing this menopause business can't rob me of. The side effects are worth it for the confidence boost.

I was wondering if you’d ever consider looking at the ingredients of a brand called Living Libations- I’m definitely not into “clean beauty” but for when my skin feels so sensitive that even cetaphil burns, one of their products that’s semi popular (the best skin ever sea buckthorn oil) feels absolutely amazing and never breaks me out. I was just really curious on your thoughts about the brand

[@Hemmyii]

That’s funny my coworker was just raving about this oil and I’d never heard of the brand. She was bemoaning her love of expensive products and I was arguing they aren’t any better than drugstore stuff.

[@madi5170]

@@Hemmyii yea I’ve always been that way too, I prefer drugstore over more expensive brands but this product is just so amazing to me even though the ingredients aren’t like some new amazing super ingredient or anything. I will say, I think the concept of the product being both a cleanser and moisturizer is pretty cool and unique.

Another source for information on this is ophthalmologist Dr. Rupa Wong. She also has a video on natural lash serums.

Greetings d b hope u r well n Happy Thursday😀👍💜….

[@iavyy]

how often should i shower and with body soap? i have seborrheic dermatitis on my face, hopefully you can answr :(

[@juliabinford6500]

I tried lash serums long ago, but they all irritated the skin of my eyelids. Me and my stubby lashes soldier on without them.

[@ccap3211]

It leaves like a purple line on your lash lines. It pretty much does that to everyone unfortunately.

[@helpfulnatural]

Same here. I have really sensitive eyes which tend to water and get red with so many products. I also gave up using my lash curler as it kept pinching my upper lids. ☹ But, I have found a few mascaras that help lift and curl my lashes so they look longer and a bit fuller so all is not lost. 🙂

A brave soul😞✊🏻

[@nancymccormick7567]

Well crap, I wanted to try the serum but with my allergies probably isn’t a good idea

[@vickyoli]

I have family history of glaucoma. I use Latisse to have amazing lashes, so my Optometrist is kinda happy lol

[@DrDrayzday]

👍🏼

[@thestraightroad305]

I have been using Rapid brow since November ‘22 and my drooping eyelids have disappeared. I didn’t connect the two until now. My brows were disappearing and are now amazingly thick and dark. I do not use a lash serum.

[@nikkibreezy6058]

I use rapid lash and the brow serum

[@aye3678]

Hey Dr Gray. If one were to use Latisse for eyebrow growth. Will Latisse still cause pigmentation and other under eye issues? I have no interest in using it for eyelashes.

[@martyashlock5223]

I recently started using Twenty Twenty eyebrow and eyelash growth. What are your thoughts on that?

[@ladySVV]

What about the electronic "heated eye masks", that are used for styes or dry eyes. Can they potentially cause fat loss when used excessively?

[@kimkjrulff1731]

Hello Dr.Dray 🖐️ I have both M2 and Revitalash serum and Been using both becsuse i loose so many lashes due to Demodex and Blepharitis . I Got red Lines on my lids and burning . Are They both unsafe to use ? I stopped . Thank you for Another very helpful advice 👌

[@Hemmyii]

Do you use a hypochlorus spray on your eyelids? The best I’ve found is Avenova but hypchlor was good too. Spraying this on after I wash my face and rubbing it along my lash line has really helped my irritated lid lines. My ophthalmologist is the one that got me started on this.

[@annie22krm]

another great video.

[@lilyyroz3046]

I've been using revitalash for years and no side effects for me

[@kianleyon6613]

Thank you Dr Drayzday, Great video. Is it also true that RF/microneedling cause fat loss?

[@DrDrayzday]

see yesterday's video

[@kianleyon6613]

@@DrDrayzday Thank you, checking it now

[@bbjonas4233]

Can topical minoxidil (on brows) cause this as well? Thank you

[@phillyjilly]

DR DRAY, will retina/retinol MAYBE help with fat loss in under eyes thats normal??🙏🙏🙏

[@marianneblackfeather5253]

Hi Dr Dray. I just read the same thing on Penn Smith’s site. My eye dr has me on Timolol and Latanoprost which is prostaglandin. I see the tiredness and dark circles. My eyes look old. I need the drops, what do I do??

[@dannasofiaalfaromarkley8104]

Hello Dr.Dray. I would, please, love to know your opinion on lip blushing.

[@db-gb5xi]

Is is similar to microblading? She does have a video on that.

[@carissaluttonmovietalk]

I've been using The Ordinary lash serum and my eyes are a little itchy. Should I be worried?

[@mirandaleschke]

How many years can you use Latisse before the fat loss is no longer reversible? I have been using it since ~2018 and I have a more sunken look to my eyes now. If I stop (even though it's been 5 years or so) will I see some reversal? How long does it take for things to "reverse"? I've been using it on both my brows/lashes 2-4x per week. Are the same negative effects seen only using it on brows?

[@raraavis7782]

I would love an answer to that, too. Did you do some more research elsewhere on it? I mean...if it doesn't reverse anyway....why stop? For me, the 'damage' was only very slight and I love having thick, long lashes.

[@RynL840]

Latisee is illegal in Australia - do you have any recommendations for alternatives? Thank you!

[@JujuTubinha]

Does it increase body hair as well?Even a little bit?

[@MrGriff305]

So, now I immediately want an alternative to bimatoprost.

[@Damian-kn5sj]

Is there the same risk if Latisse is used for eyebrows?

[@Christinandrearosamilia]

Does Latisse causes issues when applied on scalp?

[@B.L.47]

Hi Dr.Dray, quick question or anybody that’s in the field of dermatology, I am eyeing the Biossance Vitamin C moisturizer, it has good ingredients but it’s says it has “Fermented Lemon Peel” as the main ingredient. Is fermented Lemon Peel bad for your skin? I know lemon peel extract and lemon juice should never go on the skin but when it’s fermented and in a moisturizer like this, would you wear it? Thanks again, love the vids.

[@ankaimen]

…I have been using Rodan & Fields without any issues for several years. My lashes look amazing BUT…I will start to look for these symptoms. The dry eyes have been there forever, so I don’t attribute it to the serums. I have seen additional hair growth in the corner of the eye…😮

[@BonBonWasHere111]

I lost fat under my eyes but they were so think I hated it. It was actually beneficial for me.

[@joghog]

Me too. 😊

[@liss441]

Near heard of this but another reason not to use a lash serum with prostaglandin In them

[@MrDazzer1969]

It's very drying to the eye, I used Lumigan drops for my eyes to treat glaucoma, I would never use that for growing my lashes.

[@dibasamadi257]

Doctor would you please give us some information on saggy eyelid after blepharoplasty still looks saggy .

[@Chlo175]

Revitalash gave me serious panda eyes, stopped using it about a year ago and I’m still struggling with the side effects now, although it has improved a bit. It’s not worth it 😩

[@irmaxvx]

I’ve dwindled the application from daily to twice a week until I run out and won’t be repurchasing. I think the dark circles are something I didn’t get before.
