Can Botox in the masseter cause blurry vision?

February 11, 2015
Asked By:cheleybean in Laurel, MD

I had Botox for TMJ a month ago and a touch-up on the right side 2 weeks later as the clenching on that side was still significant. It has worked well but I have noticed over the last several days that my vision is extremely blurry. I did not have any injections around my eyes. Can Botox in a muscle that far from the eye cause blurry vision?
