Several causes for eye twitching.
 

Alright...so my left eyelid has been twitching for the last, oh...twenty hours or so. It started up at 4 pm central time yesterday, and has been constantly twitching ever since. I can only assume that it either stopped, or I coudln't feel it, when I was asleep.

So, in order to put an end to this madness, I've come to you all, who are full of wisdom (:tpg:) to help me figure out why this eye will not stop twitching, and perhaps help me put an end to my suffering.

And no, I will not be fucking poking my eye out...or slitting my wrists asking how this could happen to me.

Aside from seeing a doctor, this is all I have to add.

Eye Problems, Noninjury-Check Your Symptoms

Hello, Darling.

Eh, I have a nervous twitch myself in my left eye, and it's been going on and off for about... 3-4 years.

It's no big deal, seriously. I just pointed it out to my friends who for some inexplicable reason thought that it was the most hilarious thing ever. :tpg:

If your eye is still functionally intact and your vision is fine, then I don't think its anything to worry about. My eye spazzes out too sometimes but its always temporary.

They say that if your eye twitches, someone's talking about you.

I heard that if your ears are ringing, someone is talking about you. On a more serious note, I have this same problem and have seen a doctor about it, and so has my grandfather. However, we have not encountered a doctor who knew the exact cause or cure... so I guess we just have to live with it... it feels kind of cool anyway.

It bothers the hell out of me personally. I get them every now and then, but when I do...it lasts for the whole day. If I keep my eye closed though, it isn't as severe.
