Botox, droopy eyelid, help!

I am having a reaction to a botox injection. I have a droopy eyelid now (ptosis) and am using iopidine drops which help briefly but my eyes are also sensitive to light (photophobia) and i look like i had a stroke. Are there any situations where seeing an opthamologist would be indicated here? Is there anything else that could help? How long can this reaction persist?

ptosis is a sagging of orbicularis muscle in the uppelid. if the ptosis interfere you with ur vision. you can refer to dermatologist to tighten up that skin. ptosis can also cause astigmatism which may cause blurring of vision if you experience this better go to an optometrist for an eye check.
