Stress can make your eyes twitch. Also irritation such as dryness can also make eyes twitch. If it’s due to dress you need to try to eliminate the stress.you should talk to your family doctor about this. If it’s due to irritation you could try tear drops. If not alleviated you should see an eye-care doctor.

Yes, stress can make your eyelid twitch. Personally, my eyelid twitches when I have big tests to take. There is no real way to fix this, except to destress. Also, you could consider reducing caffeine intake.
