Eye, Face And Scalp Twitching
Posted: 02-02-05 23:13pm

I had lasik vision correction over a month ago. I developed sever dry eyes. I am being treated with punctal plugs and various drops and ointments. About two weeks post op, I developed a small twitch in the inner corner of my left eye. It has grown to include a larger part of the upper lid, my cheek below the same eye and a small spot on my scalp on the same side. I would like to know if this is possibly related to the lasik. I have drastically cut my caffine intake and I am not under any aditional stress, other than from this damned twitch! I am afraid it will continue to grow. I have no med. Insurance. It has been ongoing for over a month now.
Does anyone have any similar side effects from lasik?
What other things could this be?

If you exercise / work out and over train you can develop eye tic's and muscle twitches (spasms).. They're harmless. Stress can do this too.
