Can Botox be used for eye strain? (Photo)

Reliable682415Jan 19, 2026

Hi, i have had pretty bad eye strain in only one eye when i am tired or in dim lighting. My right eye is bigger and I believe also has over active muscles. That one strains really bad in the evening at work. (I am a server in a restaraunt) I have tried glasses and lubricant eye drops and have not had success. Is anyone knowledgeable on Botox to relax one eye that strains?

Why does 2:1 botox not last as long on me as 1:1 ratio does even with same mumber of units (actually used more with the 2:1)?

Reconstituting Botox at 1:1 versus 2:1 changes the concentration and injection volume, not the strength of the toxin. A 1:1 dilution is more concentrated, so less volume is injected for the same number of units, allowing for more precise placement. A 2:1 dilution contains more saline, so a...
