Accutane an Sun [posted 7/16/98] Question: I was wondering if Accutane is bad to take if I am going to be in the sun over spring break?
There are some cases of sun sensitivity. The face and sun exposed areas tends to be easily sunburned. I would be very careful of sun exposure while taking this medication unless you have a gradual exposure without problems. Accutane Question: I have been taking Accutane for approximately 1.5 months. I also had laser surgery on my eyes to correct nearsightedness. The procedure was a large success but I am experiencing corneal hazing. Corneal hazing is caused by the build up of collagen on the cornea. It seems to be a lot of hazing. Does Accutane increase the production of collagen or protein? If Accutane increases protein/collagen production might I have a problem losing the corneal hazing? Answer: There is no obvious relationship between Accutane and corneal problems.
