Some photosensitive epileptic patients show absence attacks preceded by a "seeking of a source of light" and stereotyped movements of various kinds. The common explanation is an attempt to self-induce seizures. The case reported is of a young girl who had not shown evidence of photosensitivity for many years. Alternative interpretations of this phenomenon are discussed.
