Suggest Treatment For Vision Problems Related To Poor Control Of Eye Muscles
Hi, my son is 7 years old. He has had a few occasions where he has has twitching in the right side of his face. One time it happened while he was napping. A few times were while he was eating, and he was drooling and could not speak clearly, but did not seem to be bothered. He was also recently diagnosed with vision problems related to poor control of his eye muscles which is improving greatly with therapy. I am curious if these things could be related.

Dear User,
Looking at your question, your son may have a problem with a nerve in his face, called the Facial nerve. You must consult a Physician for this problem.
The poor control of his eye muscles and face twitching may or may not be related. You should also tell your consulting eye doctor about the facial twitching.
Thank you for asking. Hope the answer will help you
