Latanoprost-induced Skin Depigmentation.
Summary
Here, we present a patient with paradoxical depigmentation of periocular skin within 1 year of latanoprost use in both eyes.
Abstract
Latanoprost, and other prostaglandin analogs, have been previously associated with increased pigmentary reactions on the periocular skin. Here, we present a patient with paradoxical depigmentation of periocular skin within 1 year of latanoprost use in both eyes. This report is the first to document such an association, and clinicians should be aware of this adverse effect and monitor for signs accordingly.
