Reflex seizure

Reflex seizures may occur in reflex epilepsy (also known as environmental epilepsy). They may also occur in other epilepsy syndromes or independently. They are seizures which are the result of sensory stimulation caused by the environment. The best known is photosensitive epilepsy. Reflex epilepsy is also an uncommon form of epilepsy, and can be confirmed by EEG and photosensitive testing.
