Idiopathic generalized tonic-clonic epilepsy and photosensitivity: a long-term follow-up study.

The article focuses on a study which examined whether the presence of photosensitivity play a role in patient's response to therapy or not. As reported, interictal electroencephalogram (EEG) was performed in all patients suffering from generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCS) and it was found that percentage of patients showing complete normalization of EEG after 18 months of therapy was same in two groups whereas photoparoxysmal response (PPR) and seizure activity showed no relation.
