I’ve had twitching all over for a couple of years, included upper eyelid, and tests have all been cleared. Apparently it’s benign fasciculation syndrome, but under the eye is a new one.

Members responded warmly to a question about under-eye twitching as part of benign fasciculation syndrome, with many sharing that they experience the same thing and finding comfort in knowing they are not alone. Several members noted that stress, fatigue, and screen time seem to trigger or worsen the twitching, and that it typically lasts a few days before fading on its own. A recurring theme was that doctors often brush off these symptoms, making community connection especially valuable for reassurance and shared understanding.

Thanks for the responses everyone. Very reassuring informative. I hadn't seen anyone mention it before so it’s interesting there’s a few that suffer with it.

I get it sometimes, I believe it’s stress.

Yes, I had this trouble off and on for years. It rarely happens anymore. It seems to me that extra stress and fatigue can bring it on. ...Not the normal everyday fatigue, but when I was just too active and pushing without realizing how much I was overdoing it, forcing myself too hard.

I tend not to bother the doctors anymore as a lot just gets put down as “part of my condition”. This is the third day it’s been effecting me, but thankfully a lot less than yesterday. Eyes are a bit more watery today though. Which is a bit of pain when my job is desk based in front of a computer.
