Eye twitching can occur at any moment, distracting us from our daily duties. At first, it seems the twitching can be ignored, then it begins to work your nerves. Why does it happen?

According to allaboutvision.com, there are eight main causes of eye twitching. The top causes include:

  • Stress
  • Tiredness
  • Eye Strain
  • Caffeine
  • Alcohol
  • Dry Eyes
  • Nutritional Imbalance
  • Allergies

More often than not, twitching is not a serious medical condition, just your body expressing some sort of fatigue.

However, occasionally twitching can be caused by neurological conditions. These conditions should be diagnosed by an eye doctor.

If you notice frequent eye twitching, visit your local Dr. Tavel office. With convenient hours and locations, our board-certified staff members are always ready to serve your eyes.
