Left eyelid twitching can be caused by a variety of causes, including fatigue, stress, overuse, malnutrition, eye diseases, etc. Here are some possible causes and related treatments: 1. Fatigue and stress Long hours of work, study, or using electronic devices can cause eye fatigue and muscle tension, which can cause eyelid twitching. In this case, rest, relax your eyes and perform eye care activities (Such as eye exercises) may help relieve symptoms. 2. Overuse of the eyes, such as staring at a computer screen or mobile phone screen for a long time, may cause eye fatigue and muscle tension. It is recommended to take a break every once in a while, look into the distance or close your eyes to rest to reduce eye fatigue. 3. Malnutrition Lack of certain vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin B12, iron, magnesium and zinc, may be associated with eyelid twitching. Maintain a balanced diet and eat foods rich in these nutrients (such as meat, fish, green leafy vegetables, nuts and whole grains, etc.) may help improve symptoms. 4. Eye diseases Some eye diseases, such as dry eye, conjunctivitis, keratitis, etc., may also cause eyelid twitching. In this case, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly and treat according to the doctor's diagnosis. 5.
