Uncontrollable twitching of the eyelid muscle. Usually an annoying but benign condition.

Find Neurologist SpecialistsEyelid spasm is an involuntary, repetitive twitching or blinking of the eyelid muscles. It's usually harmless and temporary, often caused by stress, fatigue, or caffeine consumption.
Consult a doctor if spasms persist for more than a week, affect both eyes, cause eye closure, or are accompanied by other symptoms like redness or vision changes.
Try applying warm compresses, reducing caffeine intake, getting adequate sleep, managing stress, and limiting screen time. Most cases resolve naturally within days or weeks.
