NCT04439656
Brief Summary:
The goal of this study is to develop a comfortable system that uses a wearable eye-tracker similar to eyeglasses to assist people with epilepsy in counting and measuring the severity of seizures. Participants will wear an eye-tracker during a routine EEG.
Detailed Description:
Seizures can be difficult to detect outside of the hospital even with careful observation by a caregiver. EEG is the best method that we have to detect seizures- but it is uncomfortable for long term use outside of the hospital. The goal of this study is to develop a comfortable system that uses a wearable eye-tracker similar to eyeglasses to assist people with epilepsy in counting and measuring the severity of seizures. People participating in this study will have a routine EEG performed while an eye tracker measures eye movements. After the EEG is complete the researchers will compare the eye movements to the EEG to develop a software program that can detect seizures from eye movements.
