Chances of retinal artery occlusion (RAO) from upper eyelid fillers?

June 3, 2023
Asked By:davidjesse in Jacksonville, Florida

I'm interested in getting upper eyelid fillers. I have read that fillers can cause retinal artery occlusion (RAO). All of the cases I found were injections to the upper nose bridge to augment the nose. Has there been any cases of RAO when injecting fillers to the upper eyelid? Is there a chance that it would?
