Abstract

Video game epilepsy is a photic induced sensory evoked seizure, and the seizure occurs only following a specific program of video game. We experienced a case of video game epilepsy in a 12 year old boy who presented with seizure during video game, and showed photoconvulsive response on photic stimulated EEG.
