Myokymia is, according to doctors, "a common condition where a few of the muscle fibers of the upper -- or more commonly the lower -- eyelid contract irregularly. ... Myokymia is closely associated with stress, fatigue, lack of sleep and too much caffeine."


This doctor says that myokymia is associated with "brainstem neoplasms," which sounds even cooler than "tremors." "Brainstem neoplasms" is bound to get people at the office to pay attention when you talk about your problem. But then, the treatment for that includes a "lumbar puncture with examination of cerebrospinal fluid," so maybe it's best not to milk the neoplasm idea too far. Especially for a stupid eyelid twitch.

Frankly, when I get The Twitch, I'm not usually stressed out, I am getting as much sleep as ever, sometimes more, and I don't drink coffee (I even have decaf Coke). Maybe it's my Evil Plan to Dominate the World, we usually get eye twitches when we do that.

Some people stand by the theory that it is a vitamin deficiency, usually potassium (because someone once heard that potassium has something to do with muscles; we're still trying to track that one down), and others swear that it's a B-vitamin deficiency, saying they lose the twitch immediately when they start taking the pills. I have the strong feeling, however, that this is more to do with something that rhymes with the "flacebo effect." For all of you who want the above remedies to work, I cleverly disguised my opinions about it there.

Treatment: Reduce your stress, get more sleep, nix the coffee, eat more bananas and B-complex pills. Throw in a couple of sugar pills for good measure. Save the cerebrospinal fluid exam for emergencies.

Or, you might just wait for them to go away on their own. Whatever

Man, you should be bothered about the cure rather than cause. Take homeopathic medicine Ruta 200
and Zincum Met 200. 5-7 pills once a day from each. With in a week your eyes will be fine.
The muscles of eyes get tired staring at monitor screen. Smoking, lack of rest add to mental tiredness leading to nervous disorder. The machinery of your eyes and brains is overworking. Give them some rest.

This indicates something is wrong with the nerves of the eyes. Consult an Ophthalmologist.

I don't think it is serious! My eye does that when I am tired so I think it's just because you are tired! I don't think it has anything to do with cigarettes. But I am not a doctor so if you are really concerned about it I would see an ophtalmologist {eye specialist}Good luck!!
