What Causes A Sensation Of Twitching In The Lower Eyelid?

I feel like I have air trapped in my lower left eyelid. It s summer break, and I m spending a considerable amount of time on the computer. It often feels like it is twitching, but when Imlook in the mirror, there is no noticeable twitch. I also recently tried contacts, and I spent a lot of time forcing myself to hold my eyes open, though I m not sure if that would have anything to do with it. Should I see a doctor? Or?

Hello,

Twitching of eye is a common symptom and in most of the cases it is harmless and does not have any clinical significance.

Stress and sleep deprivation are the two major cause for eye twitches. As of now drink plenty of water as dehydration worsen the condition.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
