I cannot close my eyelid unless I squint real hard. How long will this last? Having problems with dry eye. I've heard of droopy eyelid but not one that will not close from Botox in the eyelid.

Answer: Botox in lash line? I'm sorry, but WHAT??? Botox is NOT a numbing agent. It does not numb things like lidocaine. The doctor told you he put Botox in? As a side note, this would cost the doctor a ton of money! Botox costs hundreds of dollars a vial. Lidocaine costs about $1.50 a vial. I have no idea why any doctor would do this from the standpoint that it wouldn't work and it would cost an outrageous amount. Do you just "think" this is what the doctor did because your eyelid isn't functioning properly??"This answer has been solicited without seeing this patient and cannot be held as true medical advice, but only opinion. Seek in-person treatment with a trained medical professional for appropriate care."
