Twitching left eye

by djay488, Jul 18, 2008 08:59PM
For about 2 months my left eye keeps twitching (nerve jumps in my eye) it does it off and on thru out the day but even more so when I make more expressive faces. I have no pain but it is really starting to worry me. Does any one know what the reasons might be? I dont where contacts or glasses and I have never had any real eye problems only a slight stigmatism.

Use the search feature and also Google the term "myokymia"

Schedule an exam with an ophthalmologist to be sure it isn't blepharospam.
