I was recently prescribed Latanoprost 0.005% Opth Sol 3x2.5ml for glaucoma. It's been a few weeks, and I've noticed some side effects. My vision has been a bit blurry at times, and I've experienced some stinging sensations when I apply the drops. I've also noticed that my eyelashes are getting darker and thicker, which seems strange. Has anyone else experienced these side effects? Are they permanent? I'm a bit concerned about the potential for more severe side effects, like changes in eye color or discharge. I'm wondering if these side effects are worth the benefits of lowering eye pressure. I've heard that some people experience changes in eyelash growth. Is this common? If you've had to switch medications because of side effects, what did you switch to? Which symptoms prompted the change? Any insights or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated.
