Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hi Krista,

Twitching and grey spot in vision are two different problems.



Twitching may be due to an electrolyte imbalance or nerve damage or dryness or allergy component.

A grey vision or blurred vision in one spot in the same eye should be examined under slit lamp to rule out any corneal dust( foreign body) and managed accordingly.



So consult an ophthalmologist at the earliest and get well soon.
