Will a Hot Compress on my Eyes Cause Restalyne in my Tear Troughs to Dissapate Faster?

December 29, 2010
Asked By:jasperkitty in Portland, OR

I have dry eyes and my eye doctor says I should apply a warm compress to my eyes twice a day. I have had 2 vials of restalyne injected in my tear troughs and the improvement seems to only last 6 to 8 weeks. Thank you
