A medication for glaucoma will soon be prescribed to patients who do not have glaucoma because of one of its unique side effects – longer, thicker eyelashes.

The primary side effects of prostaglandin analogs are increased ocular redness, allergic reaction, a change in the color of the iris, and longer, thicker eyelashes.
