I have had this a few times and the cause was fatigue and dry eyes . I introduced a nighttime gel which helps . If it does continue I would check with your gp or optican. Best wishes

I've had the twitching too maybe nothing to do with meds. Sometimes dry eyes you can get drops from chemist.or I might be eyestrain try wearing sunglasses even indoors for a while just to rest them! If not perhaps an eye test to be certain. I know how annoying it can be good luck.

Thankyou for replays I got some glasses made up at optician with tinted lense and they do help with eye drops it's just the constant twitch it makes fatigue feel worse my teeth all feel loose since I've been on meds just finished a course of anti biotics and waiting to have it out at hospital as my dentist said it's safer with all the meds I've been on for my ra back tiny steps 😭
