If you’ve been suffering from uncontrollable eye twitching, it’s important that you chat with your eye doctor. Not only could a very simple cause be at the root of this annoying symptom, but sometimes eye twitching can be linked to more serious conditions. You should seek emergency care if your eye twitching is persistent or if you have sudden changes in the movement or appearance of half your face. The same goes for if your eyelids shut so tightly it’s impossible for you to open your eyes. Symptoms like this can be linked to dangerous conditions such as hemifacial spasms or blepharospasm, both of which are serious neurological issues that need emergency care.
