Photosensitive Seizure Warning
Important Health Warning About Playing Video Games 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 who have no history of seizures orepilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these "photosensitive epileptic seizures" while playing or watching video games. These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including light-headedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness orconvulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or hitting oneself on nearby objects. Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above symptoms - children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures.
