Not sure.: How long have you had eye twitching? First, it is much better to see a neurologist and find out why your eye is twitching. That's the expert who will determine the best treatment, and whether acupuncture is one of your options.

Possibly: If it effective then it was a good idea. If not effective, then not such a good idea. I am unaware of any controlled studies that give a more definite answer to you concern.
