I wish you sincerely that it wouldn’t be glaucoma. Perhaps it’s only tic! I had an annoying tic once in the left lower lid – the doctor prescribed Magnum B6 pills and a week later the tic was gone. The cause was lack of magnesium. Dietrich

I have noticed my eye lids are twitching especially the top eyelids, soon after I blink, I am no sure if the eyelids are contracting or expanding, any familiar with these sudden twitches of the eyelids after a blinking is this associated with glaucoma?

I had this last year… I just started happening one day, and didn’t go away for like 2 weeks. So I asked my friend, and he suggested I try drinking chamomile tea.  He says it relaxes your system.. It worked.. It went away after a couple of days drinking chamomile tea.. Thought that might help you. Scott ps.. since then I’ve continued to drink chamomile because it is quite nice of a tea to drink ;^) <long…@yahoo.com> wrote in message

but of course you’d better visit an ophthalmologist just in case!

What I find useful for eye twitching is taking about 1000 mg of vitamin e; it helps for me. Christine "chimaster" <chimas…@hotmail.com> wrote in message

These "lid twitches" are a very common complaint that eye providers see. The vast majority are harmless sometimes caused by a trigger, such as caffeine, stress, fatigue etc.     It is NOT associated with glaucoma. frank
