Photosensitivity/Epilepsy/Seizures
A very small percentage of individuals may experience epileptic seizures or
blackouts when exposed to certain light patterns or flashing lights. Exposure to
certain patterns or backgrounds on a television screen or when playing video games
may trigger epileptic seizures or blackouts in these individuals. These conditions
may trigger previously undetected epileptic symptoms or seizures in persons who
have no history of prior seizures or epilepsy. If you, or anyone in your family, has an
epileptic condition or has had seizures of any kind, consult your physician before
playing.
IMMEDIATELY DISCONTINUE use and consult your physician before
resuming gameplay if you or your child experience any of the following health
problems or symptoms:
• dizziness,
• altered vision,
• eye or muscle twitches,
• loss of awareness,
• disorientation,
• seizures, or
• any involuntary movement or convulsion.
RESUME GAMEPLAY ONLY ON APPROVAL OF YOUR PHYSICIAN.
Use and handling of video games to reduce the likelihood of a
seizure
• Use in a well-lit area and keep as far away as possible from the television screen.
• Avoid large screen televisions. Use the smallest television screen available.
• Avoid prolonged use of the PlayStation
each hour of play.
• Avoid playing when you are tired or need sleep.
