When getting Voluma, how can you immediately tell the difference between a bad reaction (blindness) and a vasovagal response?

Asked By:LAgirl999 in Los Angeles, California

I have an abnormally strong vasovagal response (get pins and needles in my eyes and can black out for eyedrops, dilation, and even when I got my lips injected). I want Voluma in my cheeks but am nervous because I heard their is an increased risk w/the blindness complication and while I know it is rare, I would just like to know how in the moment I can know if I'm having a complication or a simple vasovagal syncope like I might normally have.
