Follicular Conjunctivitis from Alphagan (Photo)

Last updated September 6, 2007

This photograph of the eye shows follicular bumps on the surface of the bulbar conjunctiva. These were likely caused by Alphagan, which is famous for causing delayed sensitivity reactions and bulbar reactions, even after years of use without prior reaction.

To see some more complications that glaucoma drops can cause, watch our glaucoma side-effects video.
