Lingering Numbness and Vision Problems After Radiesse?

mla
I had Radiesse injections in my cheeks about 20 hours ago. Left side of my face still numb, vision distorted- particularly when I look up and to the left. My doctor says it is swelling and will go away. I want this to be true. I'm very very frightened that my vision has been permanently damaged. This is affecting my every move and thought. Know of this happening to others??
