Can a pinched nerve in the neck cause eye tics?

Question: Can a pinched nerve in the neck cause eye tics?

Answer: Having a pinched occipital nerve which is located at the top of the neck can result in an eye tic. Eye twitching is a well documented symptom when this nerve is pinched. Luckily many people report that a visit to the chiropractor is enough to fix both their pinched nerve and the resulting eye twitches. While this is one of the most common pinched nerves in the neck that could cause twitching it’s not the only one so things might not resolve as easily as a pinched occipital nerve.
