A member asked:

Could you get under eye twitching if you need new glasses? i have had an on and off twitching for a couple of months; had eye exam in june.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Eyelid twitching: Eyelid twitching often occurs with fatigue, and if vision is poor during reading, it may occur more often. It may occur independent of vision. It is a condition called blepharospasm- normally no treatment is needed. http://www.neurocuro.com/blepharospasm-eyelid-twitch/
