What Causes Constant Spasm In Right Eye?

I woke up at 3:00 a.m. & felt a deep pain 3 times in the back of my right eye. I went to the mirror and the muscle under my eye was jumping up and down - a constant spasm and it will not stop. This has been going on now for 2 days. If I squeeze my eye shut for a minute it stops for about 30 seconds then starts right back again.
