Hello everyone,

I’ve been on Monoprost for 6 weeks now, and I have noticed an increase in my eye floaters. Has anyone had similar experiences?

Thank you, and Happy Easter

Hi ks1966. Any changes that you notice should always be reported to your eye specialist. It would be worth finding out if these floaters are what we experience as we get older or are they being caused by the surface the cornea of your eye. If you're not due an eye clinic appointment for some time, do give the eye secretary a call to relay your message to your eye specialist for an answer.
