==Overview==
'''Myokmia''' is an involuntary and continuous [[Myoclonus]] ([[muscle twitch]]) that affects [[facial muscles|the muscles of the face]], particularly the [[eyelid]]s, as a result of the random firing of [[neuron]]s leading into the muscle fibres.

'''Myokmia''' is an involuntary and continuous [[Myoclonus]] ([[muscle twitch]]) that affects [[facial muscles|the muscles of the face]], particularly the [[eyelid]]s, as a result of the random firing of [[neuron]]s leading into the muscle fibres. It is mainly caused by a lack of sleep, or increased intake of [[nicotine]], [[caffeine]], or by stress. However, Myokmia can also or rare occasions be a [[pathognomonic]] symptom of [[lesion]]s on the [[brain stem]], [[multiple sclerosis]] or pontine glioma.<ref>Sharma RR, Mathad NV, Joshi DN, Mazarelo TB, Vaidya MM.
