Will it hurt my Botox results to get an eye exam, eye dilation, & gonioscopy 3 days after getting Botox?

pac99Sep 16, 2023
I plan to get eyes dilated and a gonioscopy 3 days AFTER getting Botox on forehead, 11’s, crows feet, and masseter. Three days post Botox, would getting dilation drops, gonioscopy, or putting my chin/face in the opthamologist’s medical device that positions face to get eye examined theoretically cause potential Botox migration, diminish Botox results, or potentially trigger Botox resistance? If I need to space these 2 appointments apart, how far apart should I space them apart?
