  • Title: Video-EEG study in an adult and a child with eyelid myoclonia with absences.
    Author: Burneo JG, Miller S, Bebin EM, Prasad A.
    Journal: Epileptic Disord; 2004 Dec; 6(4):287-91. PubMed ID: 15634626.
    Abstract:
    Two patients with eyelid myoclonia with absences (EMA) are described. Videotape of the eyelid myoclonia in one patient is presented. An interesting feature in one patient was the induction of clinical seizures only with daylight, and in another the presence of rare, focal, epileptiform discharges during drowsiness. Valproic acid only partially controlled eyelid myoclonia in both cases. Lamotrigine, alone or in combination with valproate, can be used as an alternative but was ineffective in our cases. [Published with video sequences].
