What are the signs of recovery from bell's palsy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bells recovery: When a person is recovering from Bell's palsy, they may notice they can close their eye fully, or that there is twitching in the muscles by the eye or the mouth, or that the corner of the mouth moves more effectively. Recovery can require weeks to months. Hope that helps

I am suffering from Bells Palsy. My eye on that side is not focusing properly and interferes a bit with what my other eye can see. If I put a patch on the bad eye, will that delay my recovery? I am thinking not because it is really a nerve issue..?
