Lagophthalmos is not just on gentle and forced closure, it is during blink as well and this is something ignored traditionally by doctors when assessing the ability of the eyelids to close.[ramanmalhotra.com]

Pathophysiology of Bell’s Palsy Many patients with Bell’s palsy have been found to have rising antibody titers to herpes simplex virus. 31 Different pathophysiological processes have been suggested, 31 including active viral invasion or immune processes[primarypsychiatry.com]
Pathophysiology Main cause of Bell's palsy is latent herpes viruses (herpes simplex virus type 1 and herpes zoster virus), which are reactivated from cranial nerve ganglia Edema of nerve within inelastic fallopian canal Recovery begins by 3 weeks[slideshare.net]

You can't prevent Bell's palsy Because it's probably caused by an infection, Bell's palsy can't be prevented. It may be linked to the herpes virus. You'll usually only get Bell's palsy once, but it can sometimes come back.[nhs.uk]
