Juvederm lip filler accident - needle broke and liquid went in my eye

rachelellenh
Today I went for lip fillers again with Juvederm. I was nervous so my muscles were tight and the liquid wasn't coming out that easy. As she was pushing the syringe, the needle suddenly broke and the juvederm liquid went around (and a bit inside) my eye. We immediately washed my eye out and she was of course extremely apologetic. I'm wondering if I should worry about this? My eye feels ok now and I haven't had any sight problems so far. It s been about 7 hours since it happened.
