What Causes Twitching And Stiffness On Lower Eyelids?
Hi My lower eyelids are twitching (not visible externally) and fell stretched or stiff. It has been the case for nearly 2 weeks now. I recently checked my eyes and have started to wear spectacles for -0.5 cylindrical. I took a course of multi vitamin tablets too. Nothing seems to work. Eyes are always tired.

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having problem of twitching of the eyelids and stiffness of eyelids.
These can be because of asthenopia as a result of refractive error. The other causes are stress or intake of excessive caffeine containing drinks.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for verification of glasses to look that the refractive error is corrected and at the same time attention to any of the risk factors as mentioned above.
Thank you
