So, is Botox safe for our eyes?
Strabismus is a muscle eye condition where botox is used to treat uncontrollable eye twitching. It was developed and FDA- approved for this use with the safety of the eye in mind. As with every botox treatment, precautions are necessary to prevent the side effects of botox such as droopy eyes, blurring vision, eyelid swelling and dry eyes to mention but a few. If you have received botox for an eye problem and are experiencing problems, you must seek medical help and advice.
The cost of botox does vary but is rarely cheap if it is done by a qualified physician. Sometimes botox is charged per injection or per zone. Please do your homework before you decide on any medical procedure. If you have been experiencing eye twitching, a trip to an eye specialist first may be all you need. Remember, make sure the person injecting the botox is fully qualified and registered to do so.
