Bad eye twitch?

Question

my eye has been twitching constantly for 2 hrs. that normally happens from staring at the cpu screen too much. however this is the first time in hours that i did. i tried dimming the lights. it used to go away if i rubbed my eye but that doesn't work any special remedies?

Answer 1

Eye twitching is called Myokymia and is 99% of the time caused by fatigue/stress/etc.

Relax.

If that doesn't work and if you really want/"need" a quick fix ... drink some tonic water; the quinine in that increases the threshold required for the muscle's action potential to occur and you'll notice the twitching stop relatively quickly.

Get some sleep! :)

Answer 2

My eye does the same thing. A coworker told me that means I need some glasses which I do.

Answer 3

To much caffiene, not enough sleep or you are stressed.
