It could. If you have any concern about a seizure, it is imperative that you consult a neurologist. Get HPV, Flu and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!

If a focal seizure generalizes, this can eventuate in loss of consciousness, and eye movements can occur. But have you been given a diagnosis of "simple partial seizures" by a neurologist? Are you taking anti-epileptic medication? Are you experiencing frequent "spells"? Work closely with a neurologist, avoid driving, activities at heights, use of power equipment, bathing or swimming alone.
