Why Is My Eye Twitching?
5. Blepharitis
Blepharitis is the technical medical term for inflammation of the eyelid. The condition is caused by a range of things, including mites that live in facial hair. Other causes include medication, malfunctioning oil glands, and bacterial infections. One of the symptoms of the condition is a twitching eye. Depending on the cause of the condition, the symptoms can get quite uncomfortable, but it should not pose any real threat to the patient.
Twitching is likely to last for as long as the condition remains but, thankfully, blepharitis is usually fairly easy to treat. You should make an appointment with a doctor so you can get medication to treat the inflammation.
