Oh no, poor Sparkles! Her eyes could be red due to allergies, infection, or injury. She could be twitching because she's in pain or she doesn't feel well. The eye is such an important and delicate structure that any problem with it should be considered an emergency. That's because leaving it untreated can lead to vision loss. I would take Sparkles into a vet now to be examined, diagnosed, and treated.
