Important Health Warning: Photosensitive Seizures
A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to
certain visual images, including flashing lights or patterns that may appear in
video games. Even people with no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an
undiagnosed condition that can cause “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while
watching video games. Symptoms can include light-headedness, altered vision,
eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion,
momentary loss of awareness, and loss of consciousness or convulsions that can
lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects. Immediately stop
playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms.
Parents, watch for or ask children about these symptoms— children and teenagers
are more likely to experience these seizures. The risk may be reduced by being
farther from the screen; using a smaller screen; playing in a well-lit room, and not
playing when drowsy or fatigued. If you or any relatives have a history of seizures or
epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing.
