Eye twitching are pretty common,most eye twitches come and go, although they can last for weeks or even months.To find a solution for twitching eyes, we needed to determine the underlying cause of this annoying problem,it can be triggered by:
1-Stress:reducing the cause of the stress can help make the twitching stop.
2-Tiredness:a lack of sleep can trigger eyelid spasms.
3-Eye strain:
-vision-related stress can occur if, for instance, you need glasses or a change of glasses. Your eyes may be working too hard, triggering eyelid twitching.
-Computer eye strain from overuse of computers, tablets and smartphones is also a very common cause of vision-related stress.
So you should have an eye exam, because you may need vision correction. If you spend a lot of time on the computer, you also should consider talking to your eye doctor about special computer eyeglasses.
4-Caffeine
5-Alcohol If your caffeine (coffee, tea, soda pop, etc.) and/or alcohol intake has increased, cutting back is worth a try.
6-Dry eyes
7-Nutritional imbalances
8-Allergies
Almost all sudden-onset eyelid twitching is benign, meaning the condition is not serious or a sign of a medical problem.
However, this kind of eye twitching also can be hard to treat. The only option for making the twitching stop may be to figure out the cause and deal with it.
In rare cases, some eye twitches just don't go away. Some of these types of twitches can be successfully treated with Botox injections that help stop muscle contractions. See your eye doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment if the twitching affects half your face or your entire eye, causing the lids to clamp shut.
