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 or epilepsy may have an
undiagnosed condition that can cause these "photosensitive epileptic seizures" while watching video games.
These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, 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 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 should watch for or ask their
children about the above symptoms – children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures. The risk
of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduce by taking the following precautions: sit farther from the screen; use a smaller
screen; play in a well-lit room; and do not play when you are drowsy or fatigued.
If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing.
