Hello everyone, I wonder if anyone can comment on this. At my last two eye appointments, when my consultant was examining my eyes, he asked if I was wearing a contact lens on my left eye. This was surprising as had not mentioned this on previous examinations , and anyway I wear glasses. I checked myself and yes, there is a curve over my iris and it looks like there's a clear contact lens. I've been taking bimatoprost or similar ' prost' drops in my left eye since diagnosis 9 months ago. I have the usual side effects of a sunken dark eye (depressing) and thicker eyelashes ( nice!). Otherwise eye looks fine. I had a corneal graft in this eye for keratoconus about 20 years ago and they took the lens out at the same time .
I don't have the same appearance in my right eye where glaucoma is worse. I have Hydrus shunt and dorzolamide drops. Bimatoprost was discontinued beginning of December.
