Vision Problems
Commonly, eye twitching is a benign and temporary inconvenience. Consistent twitching over time, however, can start to affect the eyes. Difficulty focusing the eyes or strain on the muscles can cause blurriness or double vision. More serious types of eye twitching, such as involuntary blinking, can also affect vision.
If eye twitching is causing vision difficulties, it may be necessary to see a family doctor or potentially a specialist. Managing the twitch and restoring proper vision may require different solutions for different people.2‘Eye Twitching.’ A Non-Profit Hospital in Los Angeles | Cedars-Sinai, 27 Feb. 2021, www.cedars-sinai.org/health-library/diseases-and-conditions/e/eye-twitching.html
