What is Bimatoprost?

Bimatoprost is a prescription prostaglandin analog eye drop used to lower intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. It works by increasing the drainage of aqueous humor from the eye through the uveoscleral pathway, reducing the pressure that can damage the optic nerve over time. Applied once daily in the evening, it's one of the most effective single agents for lowering IOP. A notable side effect with long-term use is increased eyelash growth and darkening of the iris and eyelid skin—effects that form the basis of cosmetic eyelash treatments derived from bimatoprost.

Prostaglandin analog outflow enhancement

Activates prostamide and prostaglandin FP receptors in the ciliary body, increasing uveoscleral outflow of aqueous humor and lowering intraocular pressure to protect the optic nerve from pressure-related damage.

Once-nightly efficacy

Applied once in the evening, Bimatoprost provides significant and sustained IOP reduction throughout the next 24 hours—once-daily dosing that matches or exceeds the pressure-lowering effect of twice-daily medications.

Eyelash and pigmentation side effects

Long-term use can gradually increase eyelash length, thickness, and darkness, and may darken the iris and periocular skin—changes that are generally cosmetic but should be discussed with patients before starting treatment.
