I suggest you put just tears eye drops 3 times daily wear blue cut plane glasses if you do not have a number while working in electronic devices take a break of 5 mins every hour. Do exercises. Hydrate yourself as necessary. Do some deep breathing exercises. Â

You may not be getting enough rest and sleep. Eye twitching can be a result of tiredness and stress. Also excessive screen time may be causing dryness and result in discomfort. I would suggest you to take breaks of 20 seconds after every 20 minutes or so and look at 20 ft distance (20-20-20 rule). Also you should get enough hydration and sleep. You can also use a lubricating eye drop and use anti reflection glasses with blue block coating to protect your eyes from the blue light and help you sleep better at night. Hope it helps. Â

Hi sir. First thing is you need to reduce the screen time i.e the no of hours you use the mobile phone. Due to continuous usage of mobile phone there are few problems 1. Less frequent blinking happens due to which eyes become dry. This dryness is the cause for redness, and discomfort 2. Constant use of mobile leads to constant accomodation of our eye which leads to eye strain. Twiching can happen in such scenarios. So reduce the usage of mobile phone. Use lubricant eye drops. Cold compressions have additive effect. Â

Hello lybrate-user, eye twitching can be caused either by lack of deep sleep, irritation or vitamin deficiency (b complex) to be specific. A lot of patients are having vitamin deficiencies as their diet has been affected by the lockdown plus deficient vitamin d as reduced sunlight exposure. I see that you have a past history of hairfall as well .check your hair for danddruff, as that can very commonly cause watering of eyes. U can out eye drop ocurest or carbazol plus or rediff plus 4-5 times a day for 3 weeks. This along with dandruff control and vitamin supplementation should work the best. Â

You might be suffering from dry eyes. Overexposure to screens like phones / laptops may be the predisposing factor. Adv 1. Use a lubricant eye drops (carboxy methyl cellulose like component) 3 to 4 times a day or as per need 2. Blink your eyes more often or take rest from screen time in between (don't stress) consult your nearby eye hospital if symptoms persists / redness/ discharge occurs. Take care. Stay safe. Â

Pls take breaks in between work. Every half hour look away from your screen for at least half a minute, this gives time for your eyes to relax. Also you can use some lubricants and anti allergic eye drops. Wear antiglare glasses while on digital devices. Â
