reflex epilepsy reading epilepsy true Reading epilepsy is characterized by seizures that start between 12 and 19 years of age. There is a male predominance (1.8M:F). Seizures are elicited by reading (aloud or silently). Prognosis is good as seizures are usually minor and can be avoided through reducing exposure to the stimulus.
