Might be: Fasciculations (if very fine). If truly uncontrolled spasms, should be checked out.

Eyelid Spasms: This can be the result of stress, fatigue, eye strain, caffeine, or any number of systemic factors. You should get it checked out and if correcting these possible causes does not help, Botox treatment may improve your symptoms.
