Abstract
Choroidal detachment is a rare adverse effect which is not specific to bimatoprost but which has been also reported with the other prostaglandin analog drops. Its exact cause remains unclear, but is probably linked to the combination of enhanced uveoscleral outflow and pro-inflammatory properties. In all cases, the discontinuation of the prostaglandin analog led to the complete resolution of the choroidal detachment within 3 weeks.
