What Causes Eyelid Twitch With Blurred Vision?

I got hit in the temple with a linedrive (softball) about a year ago and I had some muscle tissue damage but nothing serious luckily. Ever since then though, as it healed, I realized my left eyelid would twitch. It comes and goes but when it's here it's enough to flutter my vision (I can see my eyelashes moving). I wonder if they could be connected or if it's something else? It's very irritating and it happens almost every day.

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having twitching of the eyelid.
The common causes are stress or because of increased intake of caffeine containing drinks.
However since you are having a history of trauma this requires examination to find out whether there is any damage to the nerves which supply the muscles and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
I find this answer helpful
