Eye twitching, also known as eyelid myokymia, is a common condition that causes involuntary, repetitive movements of the eyelid. Although usually harmless, it can be annoying and may interfere with daily activities. Common causes include stress, fatigue, lack of sleep, excessive screen time, eye strain, caffeine intake, and dry eyes.
Most episodes of eye twitching resolve on their own with adequate rest, stress reduction, proper hydration, and limiting caffeine consumption. Using lubricating eye drops may also help if dry eyes are contributing to the problem.
However, persistent twitching lasting several weeks, twitching associated with facial spasms, or eyelid closure affecting vision should be evaluated by an eye specialist to rule out underlying neurological or ocular conditions.
At Focus Eye Clinic, Thane, Dr. Mohini Modak provides comprehensive eye examinations to identify the cause of eye twitching and recommend appropriate treatment, helping you maintain comfortable and healthy vision.
