Eye twitching is a common phenomenon that many people experience at some point in their lives. It is characterized by the involuntary contraction of the muscles around the eye, leading to a repetitive jerking movement known as a twitch. While eye twitching is usually harmless and will resolve on its own, it can be annoying and bothersome for those experiencing it. There are several potential causes of eye twitching, including stress, fatigue, caffeine consumption, eye strain, and dry eyes. In most cases, these underlying causes are temporary and can be easily addressed. However, persistent or chronic eye twitching may be indicative of an underlying medical condition that requires further evaluation and treatment. One common cause of eye twitching is stress. When we are under stress, our bodies release adrenaline, a hormone that can trigger muscle contractions, including those in the eye.
