I just had a cataract surgery. Does Botox in the glabella affect safty of my eyes?

Atteyat65  Cosmetic Botox in the glabella area can be safely utilized after cataract surgery.  The placement of the botox  in the forehead area should not in any manner affect the outcome of the cataract surgery.

Hello, Thank you for your question. As long as the Botox is being administered by a skilled injector, there shouldn't be a need for concern. I'd recommend you speak to your qualified injector to ensure you are a good candidate for this procedure. Take care. 

There should be no reason that you cannot use Botox after cataract surgery. However it is always a good idea to talk to the surgeon who performed your surgery to make sure they have no objection.

As long as your Botox injections are being administered by skilled hands, there should be absolutely no problem. Best, Dr. Nazarian

Botox has no effect on cataract surgery if injected properly by cosmetic standards with proper dosing.  Best, Dr. Emer.

The Botox in the glabellar area should not have any dangerous effect for your cataract surgery. Botox side effects will not interfere with the new intraocular lens, or healing on that area.

Thank you for your question and I hope you are doing well after your cataract surgery.  Future placement of Botox into your glabella will not affect your cataract surgery results or safety.  Be sure to relay your entire medical history to your Botox injector, however.  

Not to worry, no additional side effects or affecting the success of your cataract surgery.  You should still check with your ophthalmologist prior to proceeding with your botox injections.  As there can be a potential eyelid ptosis after cataract surgery and potentially with botox injections also - so you may not be able to tell which procedure may have caused it.  But again, ptosis is very rare in both cataract and botox procedures.  Hope you see and look well for the holidays!!

 Botox should not complicate your cataract surgery in the least. I would recommend that you proceed if you wish.  Good luck to you. 

Botox should not impact your cataracts in any way. Best of luck with your injections. If you have any concerns speak to your eye doctor.
