A member asked:
What is the definition or description of: eyelid twitching?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A feeling of twitch: Most eyelid twitching is subjective: you can feel it but it is rarely significant enough to be seen by others. It is common in the middle years and is almost invariably benign It is termed lid myokymia. It can be controlled with BoTox but this is rarely necessary since it is self limited.
