what causes your left eye to twitch
Sometimes symptoms of dry-eye occur right before or along with the eye twitching. Some research indicates that dry eyes are a trigger for blepharospasm. Eye twitching can run in families, or it can be caused by the side effects of certain medications, such as those used to treat Parkinsonâs disease. Other common eye twitch causes include: 1  Stress. 2  Irritation of the Cornea or Conjunctiva. 3  Fatigue/Lack of sleep. 4  Prolonged staring at a computer screen or television. 5  Excessive caffeine intake (e.g., coffee, tea, caffeinated sodas). 6  Nervous system disorders.
