Why Is My Eye Twitching?
10. Medication
If your eyes do keep on twitching and you don’t know why, it might be down to medication, if you are taking any. Those that are most likely to cause twitching are those that treat mental illness and those that have an effect on the cardiovascular system.
This is down to chemicals in the drugs that have an impact on the central nervous system. While eye twitching in itself is not particularly serious, the medication will usually be stopped to help prevent the rest of the nervous system from being affected. You should always speak with your doctor if medication is giving you unexpected side effects.
