Suggest Treatment For Eyelid Twitching After Undergoing Cataract Surgery

Attn: Doctor

My problem seemed to happen after cataract surgery on my left eye. My upper and lower eyelids twitch all the time and it's been over two years since that surgery. It is annoying and my left upper eyelid seems to be lower than the right one. I've heard that cataract surgery may cause upper and lower eyelid twitching. Can any type of surgery correct this twitching as it is a continual problem?



Thank you for any response.



Sincerely,
