If you’ve ever experienced eyelid twitching, especially prolonged or recurring eyelid twitching than you know how annoying it can be. Always reaching for your eye, or feeling like there is an eyelash or dust in your eye even though there isn’t. It’s quite a hassle and as I far as I know there are often no known causes or cures for eyelid twitching and that makes it even more of an annoyance because there is so little that we can do about it.
While I have experienced eyelid twitching it has thankfully not been something that I frequently have had to endure. Unfortunately for my sister she has experienced such twitching quite often and has no idea why that is, or how she can stop it. We think she might have some kind of irritated nerve around her eye, but it’s not painful and her Doctor has not diagnosed anything so there is very little that can be done. Thankfully her eyelid twitching, while frequently occurring, does tend to go away after a few hours so she just waits it out. I imagine there are people who probably experience ever more frequent eyelid twitching, and I wonder if it could be a symptom of some kind of medical condition.
