The man described a recent episode of \u201cvacant stare\u201d and the woman has sensitivity to bright colours and light. Neurological examination, visual field testing, CAT scan, MRI scan, and prolonged EEG recordings were accomplished for each patient.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0317167100033771_abs3\"><jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title><jats:p>The man had a spontaneous seizure with ictal discharge arising from the right occipital lobe. Bilateral occipital spikes, associated with palinopsia was triggered in the woman by photic stimulation. Both patients developed post-ictal headaches with symptoms similar to their migraines.
