Is there a vitamin deficiency that could cause my eye muscle to twitch?

No: Vitamins are trace elements and are needed in very small amounts usually supplied with an average diet vitamin deficiency is relatively rare and I am not aware of muscle twitching being an important symptom.Anxiety is a more likely cause , !
