I had Botox 5 weeks ago. Day 8 started having very bad headaches, blurred vision, dizziness and anxiety. All the symptoms went away,the blurred vision persist. What are the reports of the length of duration of blurred vision in patients complaining of the symptoms?. I have had Botox for the past 4 yrs without complications. However this time the doctor gave me Botox in the inner part of the eyes, and I think that might be the problem causing blurred vision. Will it last the whole 3 to 4 months?

I don't believe that your lid feeling this way means they will droop when the Botox takes effect. Botox does not work instantaneously so I doubt 3 hours is enough time to see a change. Wait one week or so before going back to the injector with any issues.Thank you for your question.Kate Ross, MD
The onset of various neuromodulators varies by brand. Botox, Xeomin, Dysport all do the same thing, but take a different amount of time to begin working. I would wait another 3-4 days before calling the injector. Mild swelling is quite normal and should resolve itself within the first week....
A pharmacist is not a physician. A pharmacist cannot legally prescribe medications. If a pharmacist is injecting Botox it is likely a criminal offense known as "the unlicensed practice of medicine".
