Continuous twitching in the under-eye area may be caused by irregular daily routines, prolonged熬夜 (staying up late), excessive fatigue, frequent use of cold water for washing the face or hair, excessive mental stress, and other factors leading to neurological dysfunction. If a patient experiences eyelid spasms, it typically results in involuntary twitching and contraction of the eyelid, causing persistent twitching under the eyes. It is recommended to seek medical attention promptly, identify the underlying cause, and follow medical advice for treatment.
