A lower eyelid botox injection caused pain and bleeding. Is this normal or should I be worried?

gildi67
I had lower botox injections in both eyes. Something went wrong and my eyelids won't close fully. Three months later the right is recovering slowly but I haven't seen any change in the left. When the left one was done it hurt and bled. I am worried it hit a nerve or did some permanent damage, is that possible?
