The edge of my upper right eyelid, right corner, where the lid joins the lashes has been twitching on and off now everyday for the past 3 weeks. Its not noticeable to other people, but if you watch up close, you can see it twitching less than 1mm up/down, it does not twitch to the extent that it makes the eye blink. Theres no pain, but its definitely annoying. Im not on ANY drugs recreational or medicinal (i know some ppl on drugs have the twitching eye problem).
Does anyone have any clue??? Ive also heard there are some myths to twitching eyes.
Help i cant stop it lol!!

It is normal.
However, it is made worse with caffeine and sleep deprivation.
Keep your eyes moist with eye drops
And apply a warm wash rag to the affected eye.
It will go away...
You are probably sleep deprived, or stressed out about something...
But if not try the warm compresses to relax the muscles that control the eye and eyelid, there are little muscles there.

It's definitely stress. I had the same problem a few years ago when I started a new job. Is there anything in your life that you can single out causing you stress right now? Try to isolate it and handle it. Also try to do some stuff to relieve it like exercise and get enough sleep.

I had this problem, when I switched my diet to only organic foods that went away. I dont find organic food to be too hard to eat since they now have pizza, hot dogs, mac & cheese virtually anything you could possible want to eat.

When Botox was first used, this is what it was used for. It relaxes the muscle. Ask your doctor. because it is medical and not cosmetic, it should be covered by healthcare.

Its normal, people get that every now and then especially when your eyes are too tired, i mean the muscles are too tired.
