Light Therapy in Trials to Treat Epilepsy

There is a new clinical trial starting at University College London (UCL) that will study whether light therapy could benefit people with epilepsy.

UCL Institute of Neurology and the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery will be running the study which will involve 100 people who suffer a type of seizure called a complex partial seizure.
