What are some of the side effects of travatan eye drops?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Eye color change: Travatan has a low potential for side effects. Most notable are darkening of the eye (iris) color especially in hazel color eyes and increasing length of the eyelashes. Some may react with irritation or allergy to this medication. Other side effects are really rare.
