The treatment of<unk>  epilepsy generally involves decreasing exposure to a person's triggers as well as anti-epileptic medications. Specific treatment depends both on the person as well on the kind of<unk>  triggers. For example, in photosensitive epilepsy, some people may rely only on managing exposure to their triggers, while others, may benefit greatly from anti-epileptic drugs. In addition, different anti-epileptic medications may be used in order to treat a given person's<unk>  epilepsy depending on the kind of seizures that they experience. Photosensitive epilepsy Photosensitive<unk>  epilepsy is usually treated with both lifestyle changes and anti-epileptic medications. Some lifestyle modifications that may be recommended are limiting the amount of time one is exposed to television or screens, watching television in a bright well-lit room at a distance of at least 2 meters, and avoiding television or video games when tired. LCD TV screens or Televisions with higher refresh rates (100 Hz) cause less flickering and thus lower the likelihood of a seizure. In addition, special blue lens Z1 glasses have been shown to reduce seizures in many people with photosensitive<unk>  epilepsy. If the above lifestyle modifications do not manage the condition, anti-epileptic medications may also be used. Valproate is usually the first line medication of choice in people with photosensitive<unk>  epilepsy with many people becoming seizure free. Second line anti-epileptic medications include levetiracetam, benzodiazepines (such as clonazepam), lamotrigine, carbamazepine, brivaracetam, ethosuximide, and topiramate. Photosensitive<unk>  epilepsy tends to decrease with age, especially in one's thirties. In 25-50% of people, seizures may spontaneously subside or disappear.
