I Got a Dysport Injection, Now I Have Blurred Vision, Etc. when Will This Go Away?

Hello, and sorry to hear about the symptoms you are experiencing. In general, you may experience the following after a Dysport treatment:

1) Light bruising
2) Minor swelling
3) Temporary drooping of the eyelid (ptosis) that can be resolved with eye drops.

Blurred vision is an extremely rare side effect associated with Dysport. I have never come across this side effect in my practice. I would recommend speaking with your provider, and obtaining a referral to a board certified opthamologist. He or she will be able to assess your condition in person and provide you with recommendations. I hope this helps, and best of luck with your recovery.

Hi,

Do not panic because the effects are not permanent but do see an eye doctor.  Sounds like the Dysport was injected and traveled to your extra ocular muscles which control your eyeball movement thus limiting movement and causing double vision.  This occurs more readily with Dysport than Botox but it is quite annoying and can give you head aches and certainly affect your work and life for the next 1-2 months until the muscles regain more of their strength.  

Please see an ophthalmologist. This is not a common side effect. But as mentioned, the side effects are transient. If you are experiencing double vision, there are treatments [prisms] available that can help you adjust temporarily.
