    Yes, the eye twitches may be caused the wear infection. As we know, the ear, eye, nose and throat nerves are interlinked. Any one of them gets the problem, it may transfer to the next one. So you'd better treat your wear infection first and keep on using the eye drops to eliminate the bacterium in the eyes to stop the eye twitches.
