    When my eyes get a bit scratchy I gently rub the closed lids five times each outward from the nose with the back of the joint in my middle finger.

    I've tried eye drops and wipes the wipew helped a bit but now I'm finding I have low blood sugar when this blepharospasm happens. It is also caused by stress. Its very hard to diagnose what causes it but I believe mine in from low blood sugar.

    So what were you advised about your low blood sugar? To eat something sweet?
