| Description |
Self-induced photosensitive seizures are a rare syndrome of idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE). Approximately 25% of those susceptible to photosensitive seizures self induce, often by hand waving or exposure to environmental light stimuli. Self-induced seizures can be refractory to anti-epileptic medications (AEDs). Studies have defined wavelength specificity of photosensitive seizures and disappearance of the photoparoxysmal response (PPR) with colored lenses. |
