Eye twitching? Try getting enough sleep

Eye twitching

Mild eye twitching occurs when the orbicularis oculi muscle, which is responsible for eyelid closures, contracts spontaneously, causing small and uncontrollable twitching movements. The medical term for this condition is eyelid myokymia.

Taking a nap may help to resolve eyelid twitching. It is also good to get enough sleep each day by setting a regular schedule for sleeping and waking up. If a person struggles to get to sleep, a doctor, sleep specialist, or another health professional may offer advice.
