Abstract

The most frequent precipitants of photic- or pattern-induced seizures are television and discotheque lighting effects. Seizure induction by reflection of bright sunlight on water surfaces has also been reported. We report a patient with seizures induced by the sight of moving water in the absence of bright sunlight.
