[lisetta1000]

Is boniva a possible cause of papilloma virus on the eyelid going into the conjunctiva?


This discussion is related to uveitis of the eye caused by Boniva.

Hi,
I'm a pharmacist, not an ophthalmologist. I monitor this site for info on my eye condition. I do not know if the papilloma specifically is related, but Boniva and drugs like it can cause swelling around the eyes as you describe. Just read any website discussing adverse effects of Boniva. I think it worth discussing with your doctor. You should be very aware and cautious of any facial swelling while on Boniva.

Thank you for your response.  I noted that for the last several months whenever I took Boniva  I had significant swelling under both eyes.  Thus, when this past Sunday, 5/23 I developed the papilloma on my left lower eyelid (center) which at first seemed to have a point on top & next day became more elongated I thought Boniva. I would appreciate any feedback as to cause & what possible treatment.  It, not very large & seems to be same size this first week.

I doubt it.
