Xalatan may lead to a gradual alteration in the eye color by increasing the quantity of brown pigment in the iris. This phenomenon could be detected in people with a mixed color of the iris, for instance, brown and blue, brown and grey, green-brown or yellowish-brown.

Changes in the shade of the iris develop slowly and can remain unnoticed for a few months or even years. Clinical tests have confirmed that the color change is not followed by any clinical signs or pathological changes. After withdrawal of the medicine there is no further increase in the amount of brown pigment, but the color alteration that has already developed, could become permanent.
