A member asked:
What is a normal reaction to an eeg strobe test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Electrical activity: The strobe testing (aka "photic stimulation") normally causes either no response or a brief synchronized symmetric response in the visual areas of the brain. Abnormal responses include asymmetry or prolonged activity ("a photoconvulsive response").
