Botched Botox. Can insurance cover it? (Photo)

cleacathleen
It's taken me awhile to stir up the courage to post this online. I’ve decided to crop out my face because of the embarrassment. 3 years ago I was injected into the wrong muscle, which caused permanent nerve damage. I’ve been led to believe that Botox is temporary. Boy, was I mislead.. Can it be covered by insurance since my vision is permanently impaired? I can’t see properly anymore. I’m unable to go behind the wheel. I am absolutely devastated. My life has been ruined by a single needle.
