In med school, we were taught not to worry about eye twitching - it is common, usually related to stress and fatigue and often worries patients. Occasionally infections, allergies, dry eyes, eye strain or excess caffeine trigger it. It is rarely due to a significant neural problem.

Your family doctor or ophthalmologist should evaluate you if there are any twitches that spread to other parts of the face, affect vision, or if it is fairly continuous for more than two weeks (that is, not just coming and going).

I have read other peoples' complaints about eye twitching on this website as a possible side effect of Herceptin but fatigue is likely to be the trigger.

Less fatigue, massage and warm compresses to eyes may help.
