What Are The Treatments For Lazy Eyes?

Hi. I have weak/lazy eyes. Im 23, and ive had the problem for 8 years where my eye constantly needs to twitch. I can't cope well under bright lights, as it makes my eyes want to twitch more. I can't look at people in the eyes for more than5 seconds without feeling the need to twitch. I have lots of sleep yet my eyes still feel tired. I used to drink lots of coffee growing up but i hardly drink any now. Can you help me?
