Association Between Eyelid Twitching and Digital Screen Time, Uncorrected Refractive Error, Intraocular Pressure, and Blood Electrolyte Imbalances
Previous studies have shown that isolated eyelid myokymia (EM) is usually caused by stress, fatigue, and caffeine consumption. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between EM and digital screen time, uncorrected refractive error, intraocular pressure (IOP), and blood electrolyt...

| description | Previous studies have shown that isolated eyelid myokymia (EM) is usually caused by stress, fatigue, and caffeine consumption. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between EM and digital screen time, uncorrected refractive error, intraocular pressure (IOP), and blood electrolyte levels.
Between February 2023 and June 2024, 103 eyes of 103 patients who applied to the ophthalmology outpatient clinic with complaints of eyelid twitching lasting for more than two weeks and 103 eyes of 103 healthy individuals as a control group were included in the study. All participants were asked to record their daily time spent with digital screens for two weeks. Cycloplegic refractive error, IOP, optic nerve head cup/disc (C/D) ratio, and blood calcium, sodium, potassium, and magnesium levels were recorded and compared between the two groups.
Mean digital screen time was 4.84±1.74 hours in the control group and 6.88±2.01 hours in the EM group. It was found that digital screen time was significantly higher in the EM group compared to the control group (p |

Mean digital screen time was 4.84±1.74 hours in the control group and 6.88±2.01 hours in the EM group. It was found that digital screen time was significantly higher in the EM group compared to the control group (p<0.001). There was a strong positive correlation between the duration of eyelid twitching and the time spent in front of digital screens (p<0.001, r=0.670). There was no significant difference in cycloplegic refractive error, IOP, C/D ratio, and blood electrolyte levels between the two groups (p>0.05).
Prolonged digital screen time might play a role in the development of EM. On the other hand, no relationship was found between eyelid twitching and uncorrected refractive error, glaucoma, or blood electrolyte levels.</description><identifier>ISSN: 2168-8184</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 2168-8184</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.7759/cureus.69249</identifier><identifier>PMID: 39282492</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>United States: Cureus Inc</publisher><subject>Botulinum toxin ; Coffee ; Complaints ; Electrolytes ; Fatigue ; Gender ; Glaucoma ; Ophthalmology ; Optic nerve ; Optics ; Outpatient care facilities ; Patients ; Screen time ; Systemic diseases ; Tomography ; Visual acuity ; Working hours</subject><ispartof>Curēus (Palo Alto, CA), 2024-09, Vol.16 (9), p.e69249</ispartof><rights>Copyright © 2024, Gunes et al.</rights><rights>Copyright © 2024, Gunes et al.
