Burning is normal.: Many people experience burning and redness when starting Lumigan. Often it will get better the longer you use it. If not, your doctor may want to switch to another drop.

I was on TobraDex and am done with the course of treatment. My eye is better but still red. Can I expect continued improvement if I continue lid scrubs and OTC tears or should I use another medication? I called my doc and am waiting for call back?
