I had Restylane fillers below my eyes. 2 weeks later I have a burst blood vessel in one eye. Should I be concerned? (Photo)

Asked By:C_B in Australia, AU

I had Restalyne fillers 2 weeks ago below the lower eyelid around the orbital bone and tear troughs - the area that is typically inferred when one says to have "bags under the eyes." I had no bruising afterwards either. However today I have suddenly gotten a burst blood vessel in my left eye. Would this be purely coincidental or perhaps even a consequence of the recent "trauma" and will heal in its own time. Or could it be potentially something very serious?
