I had Bell's Palsy 2 months ago.My face only looks asymmetrical when I raise my eyebrows and lift my nose, and it looks normal when I do not have any facial expression. I have a big eye bag on the side of my face that is affected by the illness.

Answer: Can Bell's Palsy causes eye bag? YES Yes it can. The tissue that prevent the orbital fat prolapse thin out with age which results in under eye bags. That process is significantly advanced with Bells palsy since it affects the muscle.

Answer: Eye changes with Bell's Palsy Bell's palsy is caused by a latent herpes virus reactivation in a sensory facial nerve causing weakness of the motor nerve to the face. The ultimate recovery of the facial function is complete in 85% of individuals. You still have further time (4-10 months) for additional recovery of function. Bell's palsy causes drooping of the lower eyelid and inhibition of upper eyelid complete closure. Buldging of the eyelid could be do to the droopiness of the lower lid but would not be due to fat. Be patient for the complete healing to be achieved.
