Intense burning sensation in both eyes after Botox. Eyelids feel stretched. Can it lead to eye(lid) problems?

February 14, 2014

Botox for first time on December 3rd 2013 on my forehead, glabella, crow's feet, total of 35 units. Same night head-, neck aches, burning sensation in both eyes. Then swelling of my upper eyelids. A couple of days before Botox, felt like something in my left eye, eventually went away, until the morning after Botox. Keratoconjunctivitis for weeks, still dry, sensitive eyes, big eye bags for 3 weeks now. Outside corners of eyes are different since Botox, 'wider', 'pulling' sensation, irritation.
