What causes a twitch in your eye?

Question

One eye has had a twitch in it for 2 days now (and is driving me crazy!). Just wondering if anyone knows the cause?

Answer 1

Stress can do that. Or a vitamin deficiency..usually potassium.Eat a banana. Try putting eye drops in as well, because sometimes if your eyes are dry it will do that.

Answer 2

it means your tired

Answer 3

your going to kill again

Answer 4

it is only stress do not worry about it

Answer 5

This has happened to me. Usually it occurs when your eyes get tired or overworked like if you are on the computer or reading or maybe on a long drive for extended periods of time. I would lie down with a cool cloth over your eyes and rest and it should go away shortly. It never lasts more than a few days.

Answer 6

Get more rest and it will stop.

Answer 7

They say it's usually stress and will go away on its own.

It's not considered a problem but it is annoying.

I get one a couple times a year and usually last one to two days.

I find that eye drops sometimes reduces the frequency of the twitching.

Its kinda weird because you can sense it happening but most people around you never see it.

Answer 8

eyestrain.

it could be because you are spending too much time watching tv, texting or just on the computer.

give yourself a break

like a whole day without electronics.
