Upneeq 0.1% Opth Sol Single Use 30 is an eye drop prescribed to treat acquired ptosis, a condition where the upper eyelid droops. This medication works by contracting a small muscle in the eyelid, thus lifting the eyelid and opening the eye more. I've seen some life-changing results for people with severe ptosis, but what about side effects? The FDA lists everything from dry eyes to potentially life-threatening allergic reactions. Do these side effects discourage you from trying the medication? If you or someone you know has used Upneeq, please share your experiences, and also discuss how you coped with side effects. What made the difference for you? Are you satisfied with your results?
