    GlossaryLatanoprost

    medication used to treat high eye pressure and promote eyelash growth

    Latanoprost is a medication primarily used to treat high pressure inside the eye, such as in glaucoma or ocular hypertension. It is a prostaglandin analog that works by increasing the outflow of fluid from the eye, thereby reducing intraocular pressure. Additionally, Latanoprost has been observed to promote eyelash growth, which has led to its off-label use in some cosmetic applications.
