What is the omen of a woman's right eye twitching?
Disease description:
I am 28 years old, female. Recently, I don't know what's going on, but every morning after waking up, my right eye keeps twitching for a long time. I'm wondering if this could indicate some kind of medical condition. May I ask, what does right eye twitching signify?

Dr. Wang Shuai
Right eye twitching is medically referred to as eyelid spasm, usually caused by involuntary contraction of the eyelid muscles. This condition is typically temporary, rather than a sign or symbol of something more serious. Eyelid twitching may be caused by the following factors:
1. Fatigue: Prolonged use of electronic devices or insufficient sleep can easily trigger eyelid twitching.
2. Stress and anxiety: Mental pressure or emotional tension may also lead to such symptoms.
3. Electrolyte imbalance: Deficiencies of minerals such as potassium or magnesium in the body can sometimes cause eyelid spasms.
4. Excessive caffeine intake: Coffee, tea, or other caffeinated beverages may contribute to eyelid twitching.
5. Eye diseases: Conditions such as dry eye syndrome or ocular inflammation may also be potential causes.
Note that if the twitching is accompanied by other symptoms such as vision loss, pain, or eyelid swelling, you should consult a doctor promptly.
