Eye Twitch

Is stress the most likely cause for an eye twitch that I have had for well over a week?

Yes it is. It will go away...

Get more rest than you usually need to get.

Eye Twitching is a blinking disorder....it usually starts with an abnormal or excessive blinking that leads to irritation to the eyes...One that cause this is when we are expose to bright lights and when we are tired or under a great deal of stresses..

All you need is a sound night sleep to rest the eyes..So it wont go wost.

^ I agree. I have experienced the eye twitching myself, and yes it is a blinking disorder, but it is most likely sparked by a lot of stress in your life. Once anxiety kicks in, you start to get less and less sleep, and your eye gets more and more irritated.

Like louieann34 said... get some sleep. And I will add - LOTS of it.

Yes, it will go away. It's from stress/anxiety. It happens to me all the time.

OIC now I know why my eyes sometimes twitch local belief here said that if your eyes twitch (depends on which eyes) either one is going to have an argument or meeting someone who have long not seen. Thanks for clarifying that for me.

Yup they sure do, sorry if I offened you in anyway (about the OIC), I meant nothing really, before I thought it was a sign/omen that I will argue with someone (trust a modern women like me to believe all that) Laughing . Thanks to you now I know that it is all myth. Love - Hart74

If the eye twitching gets to bothering you too much a simple way that I found on the web to alleviate it is to take your finger and rub from the inside of your eye and out gently for about a minute and it will go away. It really does work I have used this technique many times.
