ABSTRACT
The authors report a case of a 12-year-old girl who had rare self induced photosensitive epilepsy. She used to move her right hand over the right eye while simultaneously rubbing the forehead since the age of 8. During these episodes she was lost in herself. Lately these episodes were followed by brief spell of unconsciousness. The EEG examination, in its third attempt, revealed bilateral multiple symmetric spikes on photic stimulation. She admitted that she often induced the episode herself and derived pleasure out of it. She responded well to Sodium valproate.
