The most common known causes of eye twitching include fatigue, stress, anxiety, and excessive caffeine intake. Eye twitching may appear in response to irritation caused by smoke, dust, or a foreign body in the eye. Allergies and infections may cause irritation that leads to twitching.
Though a lot of people think that twitching eyes are caused by stress or fatigue, the real hidden cause is dry eyes. When eyes are too dry, you involuntarily start blinking to keep them moisturized. After a while, the blinking triggers your nerves and tricks the brain into making your eyes twitch even more.
